    Thanks for the comments guys.

    [quote=”dcturcotte” post=19812]That’s some nice work andy. Did you end up having total coverage? it looks great![/quote]

    How can I answer that? :whistle:

    To the average man in the street – yes, but there are two small areas on it where I can just see a dark shadow, so I’d have to say no, but I have to point them out to anyone else and shine the 3M Sun Gun on the area.

    It really bothers me though, but at the end of the day I know they are two areas of white spot primer that I used (the recommended undercoat colour) Those areas have then had 3 coats of ground coat on them, and maybe 7-8 coats of colour before we ran out. I really can’t see how I could have done any more. Apart from getting the guy to buy some decent paint in the first place of course!! :rofl

    looks good andy, we did a bonnet on a focus that was that colour a couple of months back it really is a nightmare covering color.

    I could still see the white base that covered the primer patch just, if you looked very closely.

    And that was with around 7 coats of colour.
