Hi SI.
Popped in to my painter after work and he has said that the red donor rear decker panel he has,is what they call solvent blown!!
He has stripped it with nitromorse and its mint underneath.
These red donor panels came from a 2000tc I broke,they are made up of nos wings and near mint doors that were panited back in the early 90's,fitted to the car,but the car never made it back to the road!
It was obviously an iffy paint job back then!!
So the decision has been made to strip all the panels back to bare metal with a good dose of nitromorse,apart from the original white bonnet and boot that are ally and are fine.
It will end up with a better finish from bare metal anyway as whatever nastiness is under the existing red paint on the donor panels will be eliminated.
Better safe than sorry!!
ps.
Even though ive had the V8 as my daily for nearly 11 yrs I still havent managed to give,,,HIM, :wink: a name!
A V8 has to be a boy car!!
