Hopefully it look alright if you squint!

Thanks Mike I'll get some metal ones when the piggy bank has filled up a bit then, good to know either way before buying anything like that, cheers.

Got the rear end painted, colour match looks good, I had to get a tint added to the factory Sage using one of my wings as the guinea pig.
Door openings still to do and a good wet sand and polish, not bad for rattle cans though

Finish looks amazing for rattle-can job. Excellent stuff!!! I presume the tea mug was an essential part of the job

It was coffee actually

A well earned one I reckon, I think cans can be ok if they are from the proper paint places, it's just their regular stuff rammed in a can with the hardner, less mess too.

I had 4 cans made up, I've used about half a can on the rear bumper valance and a can and a half on that rear panel up to the rear window swage line so hopefully I'll have plenty to do the wing edges,door openings and go around the whole car touching bits up.

Certainly encouraging! Might even tackle my bumper valences myself... as a learning exercise

Looks fantastic Pete a credit to you.

Go for it, as long as you build up the layers slowly they don't run like the little rattle cans from a typical motor factors used to.

Thanks

Well photo bucket wanted $399 to continue has ruined my thread hasn't it?

Photo bucket are pathetic

Nice to see everyone getting along with their projects, I need to get back in the garage as I'm nearly there now!

Almost finished. Do you have all your photos still? I'm gutted about your thread!

What's left then?

I have but I'll need to re host some of the main ones, a task for a rainy day!

Thankfully I only did my first post with photo bucket. I've gone back and saved the photos and uploaded directly to the forum using the attachments add files option. Its not easy finding a site to host third party these days.

I can't see the point of photo-hosting. For one thing, your photos can be found by most search engines, making them visible to more or less anyone, whether you like it or not. All my pics sit safely on an external hard-drive, so I can upload them where I want, when I want

I'm better at welding than technology stuff and my welding ain't great!

Didnt have a choice when the website first changed over. Some are still struggling now.
