Look good?? I wouldn't want garage clutter on my bonnet.

Git (as Martin would say) remember him?

Fair do's - you've got good reason to be proud (and most of the rest of us jealous )

Hi Mark,

Sounds like good news.

I'd be very interested to hear how accurate a match your paint is. I got aerosols from 2 or 3 highly reputable suppliers and all were a slightly different shade - and none matched my car exactly (although that may have been due to an earlier respray).

Cheers

Julian

Paint arrived from turners this morning. Painted a test piece to test the match and I'm very pleased with it.

Just spoke with turners trade paints as suggested by Allan. Very helpful and my mimosa yellow will ship today.

Thanks For the suggestion Allan

Mark.

your welcome Mark, they seem to know a lot about paint in general, did you get some advice from them, i did, i left it a full 24 hrs between both coats, dont over brush, it flows very well, so your first coat will look rough, very in patches, dont be tempted to go over it, you will spoil it, trust me leave it, it will flatten out, do the same with the second coat, you can roller it too with a gloss roller, gently and not rushed, the guys at Turners can explain better than me.
