Thanks for the addy

 

[Da]

Lol, Daz indeed or as my mum would say...Darren

Are you a Schweppes drinker? :rasp:

 

[Schweppy]

Hahaha nope, its really lame why i get called schweppy......

O and have you got any better pics of the gearknob insert???

 

[Da]

A better pic, but poorer (phone) quality...
I didn't opt for the sticker, I got an embossed insert instead.

Yes, I know it's dirty

 

[Schweppy]

Looks good, need an embossed insert then......hmmmmm!!!

 

[Da]

Yeah, I thought the sticker might ware off with time!

 

[Schweppy]

Yeh that happened to my last clio and has already started on the new one lol!!!

1 more thing, if it isnt toooooo much trouble, can you give me a very brief rundown of how you did all the colour coding????

Did you sand, primer, paint then laquer????

Cheers bud

 

[Da]

Yeah I did everything myself. Bought a full set of everything so I could keep my standard parts.
Done to date, dash inserts, gear knob insert, steering badge, door badges (2.0 16v) and front diamond. Debating about the rear because I know it's a pain!

Basically sanded everything down to prep the surfaces. Primered them loads with probably 4/5 coats of plastic primer over several days/weeks! Kept wet and drying them in between coats to remove imperfections.

Started applying the RB paint, again over several days. If you rush it'll look pish! Sanding down again between coats.

Applied several coats of laquer to all the items placing them somewhere warm to dry off between coats.
Applied stickers where applicable then gave one final coat of laquer just to protect them too.

 

[Schweppy]

Wowwwww!!! Nice! Sounds like i'm gonna have some fun then! Thanks alot for that mate. Was the RB paint in spray cans from Renault???


OMG sorry about all the questions LOL!

 

[Da]

No mate, I bought the paint online. Forget where from but I'll dig it out later if you need the addy?

 

[Schweppy]

Yes pleeeeeashhhhheeeeee
