Thank you. It doesn't stand up to close scrutiny very well, but when compared to how it looked the day I bought it...

Total cost so far, one 8x4 sheet of 0.6mm steel was £12.70, and paint and thinners cost me £43.80.


You're being modest, you did a great job on a very shitty car ;)

So today I wiped all the faded white paint off the bonnet with some thinners. Whoever painted it didn't even flat the original paint down nor prime it. I G3'd it and it now shines, even if it is a bit scabby.

Irony is alive and well, dwelling even on the pages of this forum, where the word 'D0lly' must never appear? :P )

The lad's doing a grand job, mind you. :)
