hi everyone
ok i'm thinking about painting my VL and would like to have a go at doing by myself coz i don't have a spare six grand to get it done properly. so i'm wondering if any one has done this and if they have how did it turn out ? and could they help me with a few pointers pls ?
1. What sort of paint should i use ? two pack or acrilic ?
2. tips for preperation e.g paint stripping , grease and wax removal , mixing and number of applications of primer :wax:
3. how to mix the clear and number of clear coats should i apply ?
4. preperaiton for painting the plastic moulds and bumpers .
Any help or tips would be great guys as i'm not after a show wining paint job i just want to tidy it up and make it look more presentable . cheers
