Starting to put back together after painting

Post by Mercmancdi »

Got paint on 2 k old English White. Plenty good primer and good top coats inside and out , to be mopped yet as bit of dust and had to remove 3 wasps and jet a drop of high paint in so I can polish back. Happy enough though inside and out ,lot of tidying up to do and get rest of exterior back on.

Looking very good indeed. How did you manage to paint the roof with such a low ceiling above it? :-?

Not so easy had to drop car on to 2” timbers to get the room and take out 2 windows to fit fans for extraction of fumes. But overall I’m very happy and bought the more expensive hard wearing paint so should be good for lot more years.
Took 2 weeks stripping and prepping.
Thanks.
