Tidy Up

Got round to some more small jobs to help tidy up the outside of the car. The rear vents which at some point were changed to black always looked good in my opinion but were now a little scuffy. I considered changing back to body colour but as the rear light panel is also black I decided to leave it.

After a sand down I used red oxide primer and then satin matt black. I do think it has really improved them and for an hours work the results speak for themselves.

MOT is also booked for the end of next week so time to start worrying.

Satin matt black

Both vents now have a new lease of life
Moved on to the rear light panel which had lost some paint around the bottom of the right lamp and had surface rust coming through above the same lamp.

After a good sand with 120 grit paper I used some etch primer and then resprayed with matt black. Another good result tidying up the car a bit more.



Good job much improved
