Update:

Newsflash its become DECOOP mk II ?!?!?!

 

Too many bingles = need for new shell.

 

Picked this car up on Thursday night with a blown 3k (hole in side of block ;) ) Got it home all safe n sound.

 

As the 20 still has rego theres no time wasting for Chris :y: Friday night out the motor came.

After i sprayed the car in high fill i sanded it back and filled any low spots.

 

Then i sprayed the colour:

 

 

First i sprayed the panels:

 

 

This is what they came up like after 3 coats of colour and 7 coats of clear:

 

 

 

Then it was time to spray the body:

 

 

This is how it came up with no clear on it yet:

 

 

And with the clear:

 

 

After this i let the car sit for a while and decided that i wasn't really happy with how the clear came up....got too much overspray in the paint, so i rubbed the clear coat smooth and applied another 5 coats of clear and it came up heaps better.

 

More pics to come!!
