Sprayed bonnet

[dazandandrea]

Refitted the bonnet today after stripping it and respraying satin black.
The original top coat was peeling very badly and after a quick blast with the pressure washer, most had come off.
Sanded back, primed and top coat .
Pretty pleased with the result .

Using rattle cans or compressor and spray gun?

Looks good. Needs a good wax coat now.

Bonnet was just cans.

 

[Razamataz]

Silver would have been a nearer match?

Yes, nice job and very satisfying when you look at it afterwards but as Razamataz has said, laquer. But try using a 2k ( 2 pack laquer comes in spray format with laquer and hardener in one can ) as this will help protect from stone chips and bird droppings.

Silver is a bu66er to match

So is black!

But the rest of the van isn’t black, so nothing to match to?
