Blimey.

You're not hanging around with it. At least no horrendous annoying rust has been found. Its looking good.

I always liked the two tone as well lol!

Even thought about painting it properly that way.

It's going for a sleeper look, champagne beige...... should surprise a few peeps at the traffic light grand prix *happy*

I did try to convince my mate to spray the Bm but he declined lol.

Had a bad day today, the primer re-acted in a few areas with the paint underneath.

We spent all day sanding it back and trying to eliminate the problem.

Finally I think we have cracked it and should get some more primer on tommorow and then hopefully some colour.

big thanks to Nick (Bud666) for his help.

good work. isnt there some stuff that you can buy to spray on to seal the shell and stop the reactions. might be worth doing. ask at the paint shop

no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

There is indeed, BARCOAT, however if you rub right back to bare metal in the affected areas and then panel wipe you should be OK, I'm sure you know this anyway.
