This is my first complete kit in four months. I'm building but I'm constantly stripping the paint looking for perfection. So I finished this at all cost which included paint peeling under foiling.(any clues?) It's a spray can finish so I just touched it up and called it done.

Nice caddy. Not seeing the peeling issue, I do see some orange peel, which could be corrected with a polishing kit.

Nice project . What kind of primer did you use ? Back in the day , JoHans were hard to paint . John Hanneal used some strange mixes of plastic . Did you wash the parts (except the chrome) before painting ? It does look good and I like it . The orange peel I see in where the Vinyl Top is . I would like to believe you would keep the texture for the Vinyl .

Thanx .. :P:P
