Back of the garage

I know you could, but where's the fun in that. Notice the hint of a flute I pressed into the ends - pure skill:) The lower valence you made fitted fine to my effort[^]

Now where was I, oh yes welding done now for some prep and paint:)

The paint on the lower part of the panel was awful and just kept blocking up the sander[xx(] The best thing I found to remove it was an old wood chisel[:0]

Flutes looking good:)

Scraping the various layers of Hammerite, stone chip, and top coats off to reveal the original colour.

All that's coming off is off and now to feather the edge in.

In my dreams[8)] A day of flatting, T-cutting and polishing later

Lovely and shiny but..........the colour match with the rest of the van isn't very good[V] so I'll be heading back to the paint place on Monday to see what they say.

Good old celly mixed 50/50 with thinners:)
I managed to get a couple of runs but I'll wait a couple of weeks before I attempt to rub them out.

Thanks chaps:)
Did you notice I changed the colour of the heater grille from black to body colour - I likes it[8D] Also fitted a little bit more bling in the shape of some Wood and Picket chrome washer nozzles:)
