Re: BOB update
The chain in those handcuffs is high-tensile steel, it'll take you ten minutes to hack through it with this, now if your lucky ? you can hack through your ankle in five minutes. Go !

Re: BOB update
With the limited car painting I've done it was always "do it all at once". Can you share your insight to the advantages / disadvantages of doing individual panels the way you are.

Re: BOB update
Doing it all at once is fine if you have a proper booth, and compressor.
When i painted mine it was easy to break up into sections due to the large stripes the Yellow interceptor had.
Roof could be done first on its own in yellow, then the guards. left doors, right doors, and bonnet on its own.
Then added the other colours.
With the hardtop its a bit different. All part of the fun isnt is?? lol

We are 100% snafu....
Re: BOB update
First is limited space,and if you see how panel/paint shops work they remove all doors bonnet boot lid and paint individually which is easier for me with regards to space, also i might add this is my build, its not for a customer, so painting individual parts meant if something went wrong which it did i could concentrate on that area, i painted all the smaller parts to get a bit more confident, then the shell of the car roof rear guards door shuts etc, with now only the front guards and nose cone to go, ive already started to mask up for the satin blackouts so i hope to be past the paint stage soon.Chase Bansi wrote:With the limited car painting I've done it was always "do it all at once".
