yeah you should only really use it as a really tight skim, and you put in 2 or 3 tight skims to fill a chip. but it was getting late + im lazy and i just wanted it filled in 1 go, so made it a little thicker

done a bit of work today, just the bonnet, started late n i was volunteered to cook the tea, for 8! spag bol it was :P ran out of primer so could only go over bits of baremetal and a few other places, couple more tins ordered how it was wetflatting progress, sanding out scratches, lots...

i saw that hole but it threw me off cause there wasnt any holes either side of the thread for it to lock into, but from that pic it locks into the plastic, thats why i overlooked it! cheers bud

i like the tint

gonna just give it a grey scotch in some soapy water, get rid of any silicone. panel wipe, then i reckon itd be alright using just satin/matt black paint. parts aint gonna be moved at all, rarely touched. think the only movement from the dash will be from bumps in the road and engine vibration...

jesus, 1 year in for me i was working on escorts and corsas :\

actually! im guessing its behind my ally quarter sheet if it goes through original plastic trim? does it bolt to the inner arch skin? and come up through the quarter plastic?

so its by the floor or like level with the top of the fuel tank?

i must have sat in my boot for about 30 minutes trying to get the rear belt to open up for me so i could thread it though the quarter plastic. the buckle was like an inch away from the actual reel and no matter what angle i put it, it just would not reel out -.- nightmare

sunroof bonded in bonnet filled bonnet primed, just needs guidecoating and the line straightening up, few pin holes to fill in aswell

pmsl it still leaked??? what you do, rivet and bond it? i did have a sheet of perspex i was gonna cut down to size and bolt/bond it down, but i just went for cutting it all out and resealing it, ill probably need to do it again next year!

finally got round to doing a bit on the car this week, weather had picked up. few s**tty pics from the sisters phone as i forgot my camera sunroof was leaking, had been bonded before but it had perished, cut that out which was a bit of a ballache, but its all bonded back in now and not leaking...
