The weather has been against me!
I got the plastics all primed and cleaned all the sanding dust off the car and then started her up (first go!) and moved it out in the driveway, felt like progress moving it! Started a huge fuel leak though, i have always had issues with either hose clamps loosening, or new hoses shrinking after a month or two, im unsure what happened this time but all of the lines at the tank end were super loose, easy fix though!
Here's the mess that was my booth!
got the bottom tarp out just in time for it to start pouring, so everything went back in the garage. Got the car out again today and spent most of the day pressure washing the tarps on the garage, then set up all my lighting:
And for good measure I put the car on bricks to make it all a nicer height for spraying.
It was still pouring today and is due to rain a little tomorrow, humidity will be way up to (which i think is bad for painting?) so ill just aim to get everything masked and prepped and spray colour Thursday and clear Friday, should be much warmer and dryer by then. Cheers fellas!
