Keith, What a difference by the end thanks for the info, What happened to cause the dents! Cheers Dave
Mark dropped a big trolley handle on it :( Just glad it wasn't me!
That paint really is stunning!
Its amazing what the paint finishing experts can do ! I no longer have any patience doing anything so for me that would be a worthwhile spend !
Progress is definitely moving forward she's looking absolutely smashingly amazing. Our Mate Paul's going to have some competition with his orange mini cooper now 😁
Wow!, the shine looks amazing! Should imagine it's even better in the flesh hey. How did the dents happen then?
Dropped a ramp trolley on it :(
I’m in the process of refurbishing a 1979 1275GT and I have been looking for a black metallic flake paint spec, can you let me know the spec of
www.custompaints.com supplied the metal flake
Looks good shame about the dents, maybe a pdr man could get them out
We did exactly that, the dent man done a miracle job and it's back to perfection again
