Finally finished flatting paintwork down ,with 2000 wet and dry . Cut bonnet front bumper and front wings with Farecla G3 and an electric mop ,I`ll possibly give it another pass over with the G3 and mop then give it a good wax polish iM SURE ill find more to do but Its given me pleasure .Also had the pleasure of meeting David who kindly brought some hood renovator for me ,this shows the advantage ,of being in a forum Len

Looking good Len! Silver is notoriously difficult to get a good finish.

What a lovely job youve made of that Len. A lot of elbow grease has gone into it looking that good

It has taken many hours to get it right and lots of years learning how to spray .As you said someone is going to get a nice car .The insurance quotes along with road tax ,just doesn`t make it worth keeping for the amount I would use it .Ive never kept a car once finished as I used the money to buy another project ,except for the " BENTLEY " COPY " I built I had my fun out of that . .However due to age and health problems its a different reason to keep it .I would still like to find a non too difficult project ,if I can convince my wife its physio therapy Back to using the electric polisher and Faracla Len

More cutting with the Farecla and polishing mop and I found more work needed on rear O/S wing .I found a mark on it a while ago and blew more base coat over it I thought I had blended it in but it possible to see the two shades of paint .So I wanted more to do ,now to respray the wing completely with base coat and lacquer . ,Nothing else to do these dark nights Len

You have a great "can do" attitude Len.
