THANKS GUYS,
I'LL BE LIEING (SPELLING) IF I SAID THAT THIS IS NOT HARDER THEN I THAUGHT.
THE SUPPORT KEEPS ME FOCUSED SO THANKS!
MY BIGGEST DOWNFALL IS THAT I CANT PAINT OVER OLD PAINT,
IT HAS TO BE STRIPPED COMPLETELY SO I STILL NEED TO DO THE REST OF THE CAR OUTSIDE.
BUT THIS WEEKEND ILL SORT OUT MY GARAGE/SPRAYBOOTH &
THEN I'LL START SPARKING TO GET THIS DONE BEFORE DECEMBER IF $ ALLOWS IT!

westmother, if youre finished with that spraybooth, cant someone rock up there to spray his bike? preeeeeeez? i sold my house, so ive got all the stuff, but dont wanna spray my garage black in the process...

oh and slide, your tits make me nervous to view the forum at work

wwestmaister13 Jun 2008, 10:30

NO PROBLEM!THATS WHEN ITS DONE & IF IM NOT SPRAYING AT THE TIME,THEN YOU MORE THAN WELCOME!

UPDATE TIME

IF IT LOOKS LIKE NOT ALOT HAS BEEN DONE ITS NOT TRUE!
PUTTING IN A CEILING WITH 3 PERSONS ONLY IS A TOUGH JOB!

ATLEAST ITS IN NOW & IM FOCUSSING ON PAINTING THE CAR!
POINTER FOR PEOPLE PUTTING IN A CEILING, USE A BATTERY
SCREWDRIVER & SCREWS, NOT NAILS!

AND THERE BE LOTS OF LIGHTS!
IM NOT QUITE DONE JET, I MUST STILL PUT IN THE DEVIDER & FINNISH
THE EXTRACTION UNIT.

ITS NOT THE SAME PIC FROM THE PREVIOUS INSTALMENT.
PREVIOUS THE MAJORITY WAS DONE BUT NOT THE CORNERS,KRACKS & CRANNYS.
ACTUALLY ALOT WENT IN AFTER MOST WORK WAS DONE TO GET IT READY FOR PAINT.

THE BOOT IS ALSO READY FOR PAINT!

ITS NOT SO MUCH FUN PAINTING IN A CAR, THATS ALL I CAN SAY

IM GETTING ALL THE LOOSE PANELS READY FOR PAINT, JUST FILLING
THE HOLES THATS BEEN WELDED UP.

BECAUSE THE REAR BUMPER DONT FIT I MADE A MOULD OF THE FLUSH
PART FROM MY ORIGINAL, I RIVITED IT TO THE REAR TRIM INSERT.
I ALSO RESESD THE NEW BUMPER SO THIS PART FITS IN FLUSH,
IM JUST FIBREGLASSING THE TWO TOGETHER, FILLING & FLATTING THEN.

YOU TALKING ABOUT THE COVER?
I STILL NEED TO BUILD THAT, BUT I GOT AN IDEA TO PUT IN ANOTHER
EXTRACTOR FAN.

VVladeadmin16 Jul 2008, 14:58

Yeah just waiting for Ceiling Cat!

my buddies also DIY'ing there spraybooth, my buddy Willie said that its best if the extractor fans sit as low as possible, so what they are going to do now, is build a trolly with fans that fits under the garage door, then put filters on the windows.

We have the extractor fans on the windows at the moment, pulls the paint up, causing the over spray to rise... a bit of a problem when spraying MS Primer stuff goes everywhere...

rratadmin16 Jul 2008, 15:03

lol Ceiling Cat!

RRiekertadmin16 Jul 2008, 16:22

IM ACTUALLY PUTTING IN THE ROOF & MY GARRAGE DOOR AT THE BOTTOM,
THE GUY WHO SUPPLYS ME PAINT ETC, SAID ALSO A GOOD TIP IS TO WET THE FLOOR WHEN SPRAYING, APPARENTLY AT ATTRACTS THE OVERSPRAY VERY EFFECTIVELY.
CEILING CAT.LOL

VVladeadmin17 Jul 2008, 07:48

Oooh yes, wetting the floor helps with the dust... actually mission critical 8)

SSlide 'em Wide17 Jul 2008, 20:33

thats some real dedication! Sorry bout the cat thing, But seriously you got it all sorted dude! cant wait or dec so we can see your beast arise! from experience the low fans and water on the ground have worked well! good luck !
