After my car was hit while parked, I have finally got it all painted, on the final run now, just got to put it all together again!

Very special thanks to Triton (Mark) who sorted out my fibreglass - TOP BLOKE, so buy loads of his seats!!!

Ooohh

i thought that red thing round your exhaust was drawn onto avatar. didn't know it was real

That's a very shiny blue colour. What colour is it exactly?

And what's your silencer made from? Pink Perspex?

Its JFV Trophy Blue, the MG colour, I was going to paint the exhaust protector in the same colour, but forgot all about it until you mentioned it - bugger!

Looking very cool

Thats what i thought too


And me.

I love that blue!!

It does look very nice and shiney.

very good, nice job

VERY NICE COLOUR

^^^ it's already been said, but Mark that is a gorgeous colour and looks very well applied too

terrific colour

Like the wet weather gear too

brilliant job, nothing like nice fresh paint

defo lose the red tho, looks very out of place

What is the plastic sheet you have used to mask it? When I last did a large section of painting I had what I thought was a great idea to use industrial type cling film to mask parts of the car, not thinking that the paint wouldn't stick to it particularly well - small breeze on any loose sections and I flakes of paint blowing around!

Looks great by the way.

Andy, it is made for the job 3M masking sheet. It comes on a roll and unfurles to a car sized bag which you cover the car. You then cut out the panels to be painted and mask back. Makes it very easy.

another top job Mark.
Always nice to see how the experts do it!

The rolls are quite expensive, but a bodyshop should sell you 20' for about £5.00
