I just flatted them back using 400 grit paper then upto 800 and 1200
Used high build primer and applied around 3 coats with around an hour between each and then whapped it in the shed for 24hrs.
Then put as many coats of colour as i could get out of 500ml can leaving an hour...
Fancied a colour change (mid life crisis lol) on the superleggeras.
so to help decide on colours i cracked the spray paint out ! Not looking too bad just 3 more to do.
