Matt black with a bit of stardust silver in it (stood about 5mtrs away and let the wind do its stuff)...

Many coats of lacquer left to do and its finished (its still wet in the pics)

Yep sanded and primed

For the final coat of stardust/matt black i didn't sand as i would have removed all the flecky bits. lol

I could have done the fleck with the lacquer, but didn't want to feck it up, so the finsh isn't as smooth as it could be.

Now its dry though it looks even better, matt finish with a fleck of silver

No idea mate - but the wheel hubs have it on it too and a yellow blob. weird! :S

 

[Nigel]

Its so they can see if anything has come undone. If the paint doesn't line up it means somethings lose!
