Inside of the rear doors and sliding door painted tonight. Build them up and chuck them on tomorrow then it’s time for the front doors to be done.

Thanks buddy. Hopefully be good once it’s flatted and polished. I’m not using a booth or anything and we Powdercoat so the unit is dusty as hell. I use Pro Spray 8000 clearcoat with Pro Spray 802 hardener. Used it for years. Probably is better out there but tried a few others and can’t get on with it lol

Looks dam good for no spray booth, seriously top job. Could always pour a bucket of water down to help with dust.

Thanks dude appreciate it. Yeah will do with the main body. No matter how much I sweep and clean the bloody dust gets everywhere but should be good enough.

So got the doors built back up today and rehung and then prepped and painted the front doors. Would have liked to have got further but it takes longer than you think to clean and paint all the bolts and hardware. Not many exciting pictures but will be back at it tomorrow.
