    Yeah it looks good from far,got to remember its a ute for firewood,dogs and dirtbikes,
    i still need to scuff and buff it, i got some runs on the doors, and over spray everywhere.
    then ive got the front end to knock over.
    turns out my leaking sump is the bung, im gunna change the oil and put a new washer on it, fixed cheap.

    Question time.... ive now got to finish the front end, when thats done, ive got to scuff it what grade of wet/dry do i use?
    and then fit the sandman stickers and then clearit or do i clearit before putting the stickers on?
    cheers Baz

    I done my 50/50 and i put it on too dry. :cry:
    BUT the side effects of it looking shit, is that it now looks like a 32 year old faded paint job.:surprised:

    When I paint in Acrylic I usually mix 1 part paint to 1.5 parts thinners and the last 2 coats at 1 part paint to 2 parts thinners..... nice glossy final coat

    The ute is looking good.....
