Nice one, congrats
Well done on the carpet as well

Went back to the parents house to dig out my old spray equipment last week.

The Tyga kit was in a sorry state as it had not been fitted properly had a few holes some cracks and alot of drips marks from a shody paint job! So I had my work cut out for sure!

Set about patching up the holes with some fibreglass and after lots of filling and sanding was able to get a couple of high build primer coats on.
Cut it back with 800-1000 grit then shot the white, I decided to use an Ibis white (Audi colour) as it has a slight pearl to it, along with a vauxhall blue and a bit of black. Went for a Konica Minolta inspired scheme.
It still needs a final cut back and buffing up but looks good as new :)

Had a bit of a mare with the blue as it seemed to react with the thinners in the clearcoat and caused it to crack so had to strip it back and respray it with a different clearcoat.

Hope to get the bike back on the road end of this week or beginning of next!

are you using rattle cans james ? looks nice job there

Used rattle cans for the blue bits although the rest is cellulose through a gun. Use to spray bespoke furniture to a mirrored finish. Have done a few bumpers and crash repairs on cars so got all the gear.

great work so far fella.

Lovely finish on those panels. Nice work.

This is going to be a nice bike and it is going to love you for the effort you put in.

Well done on the test too...not long now and you can get out on it!

Cheers for the encoragement guys, feel its been dragging on for a while now. So the positive comments are good motivation. Cant wait to fire it up and get it on the road!!
