LP2 SAR Hull No 316 Restoration.

Looks Great Matt well done . When I painted the Green I used a small flat brush and cut in around all the hardware e.g. floor fittings, inside dash cut out,
underneath engine rails , also I gave a good coating along all the seams inside the hull , this way when your spraying the big flat panels your not trying to get coverage around things in hard to get places . best to paint up under the drivers compartment first , then fire wall behind you , lower inside walls , floor then panniers then work your way out . Second coat you can take your time and spray away .. I think I used about 25 litres of KG green enamel , 20 litres of primer 1 x 20 litres of enamel thinners 1 x 20 GP thinners best to buy thinners in 20 litres with tap . These numbers are for the complete carrier not just the hull . hope this helps . Dale

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the advice. I was aware that primers are porous and susceptible to moisture, but I was trying to give my wallet a chance to recovery if only briefly before applying the Khaki Green. I've already started to brush in paint in the harder to get to areas before starting to spray it. It should all be under a coat of green in the next week or so.

Regards,
