I thought this would be easy...Just buy a tin or three of Satin Black with thinners and spray it on.


View my prep so far. http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/ahra@btinternet.com/album?.dir=98de&.src=ph&store=&prodid=&.done=http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/ahra@btinternet.com/my_photos



I'm getting told all sorts. Like Cellulose SB is porous. Epoxy black primer is not porous but it goes white in time and is...oh dear...2K. Being told to get gloss black and add talc until it's satin. How much chalk makes it satin before it' matt?



Maybe I should go to Halfords and get 30 tinnies of SB and use that. James' Vette came out fine using cans and so did Jason's.



Anybody please make it easier for a numbskull like me. If it helps I'm spraying u-pol 1K etch acid primer on the GRP first. Can I go straight over this with SB? I wont go near 2K with cyanites!!

You have been busy, I hope Lil Deuce has been helping! 


Don't know if Sniper suggested talking to Morelli's in Ipswich, they mixed the paint for the Rapier and were quite helpful.

Where is Gramic?


Old B'. I'll try them. Was given the number for PPG in Stowmarket but just got through to the gate house.


No L'il deuce is not helping. Probably a good thing

Now that's an offer, just hope that Flamer doesn't try to help or it'll end up day glo orange like his Princess!


By the way Deuce, my grandma used to call herself Mother B'!
