Awesome color!
Nice !!!!!!
Outstanding Scott! Great colour and great work! Looking fantastic!
Terrific color!! A newbie question... why paint the trunk separate from the rest of the body?
Scott
Its amazing the efforts to get the stain pigments needed…..but seeing the color applied makes it worthwhile.
Thats the coolest green ! Of course the major components , brakes, ENGINE & details are awesome .
Great selection for finishes .
Its a very special build ….Cudos !
More photos please
Frank
incredible color!
Where we mask holes to paint the trunk vs where we mask to paint the exterior is different. For example when painting the door jam area with the doors removed just like the factory did we will mask from inside the trunk. You're also leaning on the fenders when painting the trunk. We shoot 2 coats in the trunk so first coat dries for a bit then we shoot the second coat. Now we will mask off the trunk and engine bay and interior of the car so during the block and wet sanding of the primer so it will stay clean and perfect. We give the primer plenty of time to dry before blocking. The exterior will get 4 coats of Glasurit 22 line. I'm painting the trunk much better than Porsche obviously did as the paint in trunk that Porsche did was barley one coat if you want to call it that. More like over spray. There will be no polishing in the trunk area. It's done.Quote:

Brutal, you really can't understand how much work it is to do a professional paint job! Hug your paint and body guys if they're good at what they do. Color on exterior end of next week.
yep..... when you see blood coming thru where the fingerprint lines should be.
Haha, exactly and people wonder way a paint job isn't 5K dollars. Just the materials are 5k now if using the good stuff.Quote:
