tmathew1us Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Very smooth looking clearcoat, really makes the base pop. Did you use a 2 part clear urethane? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinfan5 Posted August 16, 2017 Author Share Posted August 16, 2017 Very smooth looking clearcoat, really makes the base pop. Did you use a 2 part clear urethane?Thank you, yes, 2k clear , I thinned it just a little bit with Mr Thinner and added a little bit of Mr Retarder to it, its not perfect, there are some tiny debris spots, but they are hard to see and I am lazy so they are staying.

martinfan5 Posted August 16, 2017 Author Share Posted August 16, 2017 Part one of all the trim done, what a pain that was, everything fit fine, it was tedious , and a lot of removing excess plating from the molding to get all of it to fit in the channels, I really was kicking myself last night for not having any of the Chrome Pens yet, really would of come in handy. Up next is the BMF on the greenhouse, and then get this one finished up, the interior is done, just have not photograph its yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martinfan5 Posted August 17, 2017 Author Share Posted August 17, 2017 After what seemed like a few hours, completed the window trim, more so a pain on this one, the trim lines in some spots, like top side of the windscreen, rear window, on the A-Pillars , and after putting the BMF, becomes even more faint, so it took a tad bit longer to get all the trim done, please note I suck at doing BMF, so its about is good as I am able to do with BMF for the time being. ( this why I like newer cars, no F*****BMF to deal with haha)And proof that I did in fact complete the interior.And a mock up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
