Slow Progress
In the end, the rain never came, but it has been threatening on and off all day.
So I stuck to working in the tent where I tackled the paint problems on the bonnet.
These ranged from bigger cracks like these.
To collections of very small wrinkles.
In the end, I flatted back the whole bonnet and the boot lid, although reflections in the photos confuse the issue a bit.
Now if this was an episode of
Sin City Motors, I would be saying what great patina the 'hood' had and simply be clear coating it!
But I will save the 'survivor' option as a last resort if I can't a half decent shiny paint job.
Thankfully, the massive drop in temperature between yesterday and today really helped the paint go on.
Unfortunately, a few blemishes did appear, but just a tiny fraction compared to yesterday.
Hopefully, I will be able to fix any issues with the body shell tomorrow.
So, until then, take care, Paul.
