western Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 Smart good to see Hawk Rescues old 110 in the background too I see you have 2 shackles on the front , best to take them off when not in use to prevent them being nicked or losing them on the road. & report the change of colour to DVLA via your V5 reg document & let your insurers know too.

disco tony Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 I do like that Si. What paint is it? what preparation and lastly, was it applied by brush? (as appears in pics). Think mine may look like that in the summer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siearl Posted March 1, 2008 Author Share Posted March 1, 2008 Tony, Paint was Dulux Weathershield and yes applied by brush, For prep just made sure she was clean, slight key with 400 wet / dry and then a quick wipe with white spirit. It looks hand painted close as in standing next to it however from a distance ust looks nice and shiney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siearl Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 If you do it the only advice i can give is to make sure that the room is warm as where i had to use there is currently no power (lights where by a generator). And if you are able to do thin coats building it up, (again i didnt have warmth or time) so i have ended up where it as run,. You can see it close up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
