So its been a couple of months since paint, its gone dull from gassing off so decided to test it on the bonnet...

de-nibbling
Image

On with first stage of sanding
Image

after third stage of standing
Image

Polished back...
Image

Image

Happy with the results, but a little at a time considering the bonnet was 4 hours...

New rear lights turned up thanks to Shed, packed them well and sent out straight away!

Image



Hopefully new wheels and 6 gears next...

Beautiful finish Jonny, bet your not looking forward to wet sanding the sides?
Have you thought about trying denim or velvet pads or will they not finish good enough?

The 3m system works a treat with this lacquer... although I have swapped out the finishing pad for a microfibre finishing pad.

Now finished with Gtechniq C1 and Exo V2


Finished the drivers wing today.. Ye, really not looking forward to the amount of time the sides are going to take!

Would love to get this done on mine, but unless its me doing it I couldn't afford it. Serious labour. Fair play, it looks stunning.

Install...

out with the manual switch setup - soon to be for sale ( lines, valves, connectors, wiring and front struts fully rebuilt with a airlift rebuild kit)
Fairly intense install compared to the simple management setup.

Image


Lining up the copper hardlines...

Image


Simple setup, finished and polished up...

Image



Then time for a quick wash...

Image



Next week the new AirLift struts should arrive, platform, damper, and camber adjustable!
