Painting Progress

Wednesday 12 Jun

Not much to report apart from the green etch primer is now over sprayed with grey primer / filler.
Unfortunately progress is only steady due to work and visitor commitments. Having said that, we had a great week with Sheena's sister Rhona and her daughter Danielle.


Here's a good clear picture record of the frame number. It may be handy to get a genuine certificate of authenticity in the future. I have no idea how to go about this but had heard of such a cert.


Here's the frame finished in grey


Last but not least a pile of bits ready for the  finish / top coat


I'm hoping to get the top coat started at the weekend. I think I will break it into two sessions as Wednesday was a 7.5 hour prep and spray day which was hard going, I was cream crackered at night with a sore back to boot.

Hopefully the blog will get more interesting as the re-build gets under way.

Please feel free to add comments that is if anyone actually reads this :)

  1. Try wearing some gloves next time you spray, that way you won't end up with white wrists, oh yes and maybe something for your head would be a good idea, I thought you were ill yesterday by the colour of you, then just realised you had as much paint on you as the scooter!!!!
