Came across this blog, written in 2009, of a restoration of an M3 Beemer.
If you want to understand how to get a perfect paint finish, then its a great read. Loads of pics, and detail.
Its very good! I think I will have to raise my game!

Lovely find!
Having painted the Spyder myself, i know what finish i achieved and how much reading and practice i did to get that far, so now i respect blogs like this even more!

And that's why I'm paying a mate to paint mine!

Just spent about 4 hours of my holiday reading that thread, my god that man has the patience of a saint, and a fair dose of OCD as well I'm guessing!
