monza 2 cracked lacquer

<< < (2/3) > >>

tommy1:
Cheers snapey, ive got some in a aerosol that i can probably spray into the lid and apply with a brush! proper job!

tommy1:
for anyone interested in repairing a crack in the lacquer, i would recomend doing this:

rub back the paint with 1200 grit wet and dry
apply 5 thin coats of clear lacquer, job is a gud-un!

just so you know...

Ess_Three:
How's the re-coat lasting with all the salt about?

tommy1:
really good, put 5 coats on so its still holding up  :happy2:

^^^^
It's the chips which cause the problems - The lacquer seal gets broken and the dreaded white worm starts. That's why I powdercoated my Monza 18's.
