I could use some help with paint at the mo' Cool thread, long overdue

I've just (last weekend) stripped 4 shades of yellow off the whole rear half of my Beetle back to steel with just 2 3M 'Clean N Strip' discs, drill mounted.

I wiped/blew/vac'ed the dust away then used Upol Acid #8 rattle can.

Followed by a beige 2k filler primer by Palinal. Applied with an Earlex HVLP Spray Station £70 :agree:

Engine bay and rear innerwings were coated with a light textured Upol overpaintable stone chip between the primers.

Just got to decide if I really want to stick with the same colour (got the paint already sleepless nights)

For filling light dings I used Holts Cataloy knifing putty.

I should be out the back giving it the wet 1200 treatment but the show (Deva Dubs and Rods) is tomorrow...

Matt
