PraetoR Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Pretty much perfect colour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted March 29, 2016 Author Share Posted March 29, 2016 Yea the colour is spot on, it's going to need a few coats of laquer tho, I've just been reading up and it's not recommended to wet sand a metallic/pearl base colour, I'll do it once I've got a good 3 coats of laquer on, but so far so good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PraetoR Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Noice! ... that was supposed to be Australian... Looking forward to seeing it. At least you are certainly not going to lose any of it's menace, with that colour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.AJ. Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 Needs a few days for the laquer to harden off and then I can give it a wet sand and a good polish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he's delighted about the 25% discount I guess you should both warn each other as this is now turning into a sales thread, but not in the correct section. You bad boys you!

.AJ. Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 They do come off, but they don't actually hold the tyres on, the internal beadlock ring does all the holding, if that makes sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
