Re: Rebuilding/Refurbishment now by Bugger
Your work is looking good Pierre. How durable is spraying the front beam and gearbox like that? Or does it all come down to surface prep prior to spraying?
From fastest to slowest:
Birkin race car, not much is standard
Lotus Elise 111R, almost everything is standard
'75 SP 1600 with a few mods
B8 A4 Avant tdi, towing made easy

Thanks James
It is all to do with the surface prepping
This buggy was not suposed to get as much detail but I thought for a litle extra labor it makes the end result so much better
I use very good De greaser on both and on this specific project did not remove prior paint. but when you Charge for detailing then the old paint needs to be removed and fresh Etch Primer needs to go on first
And I use 2 K paint with a layer of 2K Clear over everything that seals everything nicely aswell
