hmmm, i dunno, i just think its a shame to get too carried away with getting it right when soon you'll be crying over how battered it is already.

Im not trying to be a nay-sayer, just to consider saving yourself a load of work.

after a few years of use mine has achieved a unique patina of tree scuffs and hedge scratches and various marks and dents etc from various different occasions, you can read the bodywork like a storybook.

Im glad i just slapped the green paint on with a brush, 3hrs start to finish and it looks awesome, brush strokes anorl.

No point polishing a turd mate, life's too short for extreme polishing in my book anyway, why polish it when you could be driving it.

amen :)

I know what your saying brush/ roller works for NATO paint but I'm not a fan of NATO colours personally my paint is quite glossy and would look good sprayed I just wanna get rid of corrosion and abnormalities in the paint not going to do much panel beating and it would rarely be polished

Both a means to an end but it seems a shame to spend so much time on what's underneath and then just slap paint on with a brush haha

I know what you mean dude, tough decision to make

i painted mine satin green because i wanted a colour that would bfit in with the environment and be very forgiving, and i wanted minimal paintwork maintenance!

if you put the effort it you will be rewarded with the results of course :)
 
Haha 51 pages that's dedication ;)

Cheers man hopefully it will be done soon ...

Nah, 13 pages on my system .. set options to no sigs and 40 posts per page, makes it way easier to read longer threads.
