Post by: Big Fra on 16 February 2008, 14:29:32

A few hours with some coloured t-cut on some really faded paintwork, what do you guys think?

I'm rather chuffed with the way it came out. Although when you spend a bit of time on the body you realise how bad the paint actually is!

Mine still has a lot of scratches, lots and lots of rust, and a handful of dents.
BTW all the marks and scratches were there before I bought it, and though the colour was the first thing that grabbed my attention, I felt that I could put up with the little marks.

Still an ongoing project though.

I used turtlewax colourmagic with the chipkit thingy.  I am considering getting some G3 compound and a polisher to try and give it a bit better shine.

Thanks for your comments chaps, much appreciated. :y
