Steve,

I just revisited this topic, as having had a crack at my bodywork a few months back, I'm now revisting it. How good did you get your car's finish in the end?

I'm going to have to resort to some discretly positioned adhesive black vinyl on my car, as the gel coat is simply diabolical, and the areas that need chasing and refilling with gelcoat too vast.

I think I've done a respectable job of the mechanical parts, but the bodywork is really letting the side down. I'm not sure a spray job will remedy things, as the GRP flexes so much, I can see the paint cracking.

Cheers,

John.
