Project Z33

Been thinking about this colour combination on a car for quite awhile and didn't know which body to do it on.....but on a last minute decision, decided to do this paint job on a Fairlady Z33.....it had the right textures and detailing particular to this HPI Mold.....it accentuates different lines and details on the body...... It shows the job from the middle of the process onwards.....the base colour had oredi been put on.....quite a bit of cock-ups and I intend to learn from it..... Cock ups!!! (Learn from them you FOOL!!!!!!!) 1) Never use medicated oil to remove sticker marks...they leave a white residue that sticks to the plastic 2) Get a drill to make the post holes.....Use the right tool for the right job... 3) Mark the post holes properly....still have not learnt to do that properly......got to learn it soon... 4) Remember to give it a final wash before even starting to spray!!! Had dried water marks from sticking on the stickers process 5) Make sure all rough work aka filing / reaming / screwing / cutting are done before the wash Been thinking....maybe I can do a sideline doing RC Body paint jobs.....won't earn much though....and it hell won't beat my day job! Check out the pics above.....
