Dis waar en prakties, maar hoe gaan dit lyk as die kappie wit is. Gaan dit nie afteek teen die groen nie, of die groen bederf nie?

As jy bang is dat die kappie gaan afsteek by die res van die buggy maak hom dan n pearl wit of kry n verf plek om bietjie metal flake in wit in te meng of selfs metalflake in n clear coat in te meng, ek moet saam Pine stem oor die wit en die koel bly van die binnekant van die buggy. 8)
Just keep on BUGGIN'

Ek sal kyk of ek van die pearl wit kan kry, 500ml sal genoeg wees. Ek gooi gewone glitter in die clear coat, dis wat hom daai eksta effek gee, sal kyk of dit gaan werk met die wit. Weet net nie of ek clear coat oor wit 2K verf kan spuit nie, sal uitvind en toets hoe dit gaan lyk.

Thanks, tomorrow I'm going to pray the outside of canopy with the same white as I've been advised. was thinking of the pearl white or glitter in the clear coat, but for now I'm going to stand with plane white for canopy.

Think that will be perfect with Glitter in the clear coat, I did that on the Fastback and it brings the car to life.

Looking smart... :D

So Herman kan ek die clear coat net so oor die wit 2k spuit of moet ek dit eers behandel?

If I was you, I would let the 2k harden for a few days, standing in the midday sun.

Then I would key the white with very fine sanding _+ 400 grid or more, then spray clear with glitter.

Just be sure not to mix too much glitter as it will look :bn: if too much. test it on your workshop cupboards to see the end result as you mix. :roll:
Also mix the whole lot one time, you will never get the same mixture again, and store some for future use.

Also keep shaking gun as you spray to stop the glitter from settling.

Will look great.

Ek het met die verf verskaffer gepraat vandag en hy beveel aan ek moetmet die eerste clear coat 'n bitjie van die wit in meng en dan skoon clear vir die volgende laag met glitter in.

Altwee sal werk, dit hang net af waarvan jy meer gaan hou, die groen sal baie sigbaar wees op die wit en die silver sal meer natuurlik lyk op die wit, doen miskien eers 2 toetse op scrap metaal/hout/fibreglass en sien wat lyk die beste vir jou..

the green glitter may be a bit big, to look nice, had the flakes been smaller, I think it would have look :flash:

Think the silver would be a better bet, but maybe you can get smaller green flakes, and try on some old "For Sale" sign boards.

As said before. you Must like it, then its right.

Enjoy the testing.
