I liked your commentary. You know your stuff and you’ve got a calm delivery ……..much better than the pointless music that mostly just drowned out the nice v8 rumble
Thanks Tim, appreciate the comment! I always feel like it needs something on there at least otherwise it's too bare... but I'm very, very limited for the music choice on the editing app I use. I just do these for fun! Maybe I'll do the next totally without
Thank you Richard, a good 90% of the work all in the prep stages! Although this was an 11 hour job in the booth due to the striping... appreciate the comment 😊
Thank you! I've uploaded another version with better audio if you couldn't hear any of it 😊 I'm afraid not mate, I really can't remember, tend to mix enough for the first coat, then mix the 2nd according to how much the first used whilst the car is flashing off! So I don't tend to pay that much attention as silly as that may sound. I know we used 2.5 litres of basecoat though!
Yes, blue was a glaze, much less viscous and easier to spread but with a Thinner fill. Pink was normal filler, not the easiest to work with in the colder weather we were having so I was mixing between the two a little!
Greetings from Australia. Great improvement over the worse than terrible original body with more waves than the English Channel. Watching the video as you film the rear right hand side quarter panel, the paint still needs to be blocked back, flattened and flow coated to get that flat, mirror finish.
Hello to you in Australia! Thank you for the comment! We didn't go to the extent of a flowcoat on this one as it is a car that will be used, and not a show pony! 😊 There's a fine line between something the customer loves, and something the customer is petrified of using! 😂
Fantastic outcome at the end - absolutely brilliant.. though if I could make a selfish request; voice-overs over the top of music drive me bonkers because (for whatever reason, and this might be very specific to me for all I know!) it means I can't understand what you're saying half the time.. which was a shame as I really wanted to watch it all the way through and see the process!
Thank you for the comment, really appreciated!! You're not alone with that one... I was somewhat out of my comfort zone with the commentary I'll be honest! Music was set at 6% and seemed fine on my phone, but watched it back on the telly and I could only understand it as I knew what I'd said! 🤦♂️😂 perhaps next time mate 😊
Fantastic workmanship, very hard to find , I've had a few grp cars resprayed it's a hit or a miss, certainly never seen workmanship off this standard before, maybe ditch the annoying music next time , well done .
Thanks Stephen, really appreciate the comments. They're a bit of a challenge from time to time a s a lot of additional steps to them, but worth it in the end. I reuploaded this same video with greatly edited audio as I got a lot of similar comments to yours, my painting thankfully is better than my video editing! 😂
Shame you didn't see the final outcome. I'll take that comment on board thank you! Currently extremely limited for music choice as I only use a phone and a really basic app!
Apologies mate, I had it set to 6% and seemed fine on my phone, but then not so much when I watched it back later. Very, very basic editing app and a phone is all I have, bare with me! 😊
Stunning transformation the owner must be delighted, good to see a master craftsman at work👍beautifull job
Yup!
Ohh, I wouldn't go that far Gary, too kind! But yes, a pleased customer! Ready for the decent weather now 😊

That's an amazing job done the detail is second to none. I love the colour the sparkle of Grey is just beautiful. Top work.
Thank you mate! Went for something very subtle, but still a little special in the sunlight! Really appreciate the comment 😊
Stunning Job ! Congratulations
Appreciated, thank you 😌
What an absolute beauty. Well worth all the time and effort you put into the prep 👍
Thank you Richard, a good 90% of the work all in the prep stages! Although this was an 11 hour job in the booth due to the striping... appreciate the comment 😊
Breath taking, beautiful
Damn that is gorgeous!!!❤
Thank you! Came out nice this one we think!
Stunning, love the Cobra and the GT40.
GT40 is my all time favourite, you may be able to tell from my logo 😉
What a paint job looks stunning
Thank you David, very much appreciate the comment 😊
Just gorgeous.
Thank you, we appreciate that! 😊
Dreamcar 🤩
Lovely aren't they!
Gorgeous
😌
So impressed how many times you blocked it down to achieve a perfect reflection. How long from start to finish?
Nothing I hate much more than fibreglass ripples and warped panels! 😌 I've got to be honest, we didn't count the hours on this one, i couldn't say!
Looks fantastic and fascinating info. Are you able to say approx how many litres each stage took?
Thank you! I've uploaded another version with better audio if you couldn't hear any of it 😊

@4:22 Two different colours of glaze(?) fillers - any reason for this?
Yes, blue was a glaze, much less viscous and easier to spread but with a Thinner fill. Pink was normal filler, not the easiest to work with in the colder weather we were having so I was mixing between the two a little!
Can't hear what your saying over music
Please check the description mate, link to the better audio version in there 😊

Dude,
You can hardly be heard over your background music/noise!
Have a look at the very next video mate 👍
Just wow, my red cobra has just becoming boring ❤
I highly doubt that, love a red car!
Do this again but kill that music. I quit at 5:00 because of this music.

beautiful paint job...turn off the sissy music and let me hear what a rover V8 sounds like through side pipes!!!
Doesn't have any side pipes mate 😂😂 But as it happens, the one I have in now has side exhausts and another rover v8 powered one! 😂
It was hard to hear your comment with that stupid music playing
Apologies mate, I had it set to 6% and seemed fine on my phone, but then not so much when I watched it back later. Very, very basic editing app and a phone is all I have, bare with me! 😊
