Mercedes 300 CE Shed of the week.
Discussion
Been busy today but neglected to take any pictures as I was having a nightmare! Ran out of masking tape,went to paint shop for some only to get back and discover I had no primer left. Grrr. My favourite spray gun then decided it would be a good time to leak big drips of lacquer on the parts I was painting
So I got the plastic panels painted and the bumpers in the contrasting blue,however I did them with normal shiny 2k lacquer rather than the satin they should be in,mainly because someone had already done that on the passenger side and I don't like satin finishes as they look rubbish!
I also prepped the other bits of the body I will be painting tomorrow,losing the will to live with prep work....
The only pic I took,you can see the big splashes of clear on the brown paper.

Been a bit slack updating this,car was put back together on Saturday morning in a rush as I was back at work on Monday. Still some jobs to do,I need to get some new number plates as these are tatty,then make a start on the interior. I could also do with repairing the bumper inserts as they have a few scuffs,but not as obvious when covered in shiny stuff.
Dug some old tapes out too so I can endure the awful stereo!
