It's shiny, but a final coat of clear laquer is still required.

And your teaser for the week whilst I'm away: a sneak preview of the black leather interior with silver stiching.

Enjoy!

Make the most of it, Boys!

Three coats of laquer, left to stand to skin and flow out, now being slow baked to harden.

9m93 Speedster Widebody bodyshell paint?

Done.

Paint looks great - though I had no idea that cobalt was soooooo purple!

Tireless work to get to this point so quickly. Congrats.

Marc showed me a sample section of painted bodywork last week. It is slightly different from normal cobolt as he has added his own twist to the standard ingredients, something to do with more modern metallic flakes?! This gives the colour extra depth over the original and a slightly more purple tint without actually changing the base colours!? It looks amazingly deep in the flesh.
