Our Toylander in etch primer

With etch primer all round we can now do spot filling,re sand and apply more primer,which after sanding can have its top coats applied,colour,what colour? The bonnet still needs work on it,I have trimed the front back leaving around
13mm (1/2") as an overhang,the back rail still needs gluing in place,when thats fitted I can apply 816 thin epoxy all over to harden up the surface of the Superform bending plys.


To ensure a good bond I have sprayed our Toylanders first coats of paints with a special twin pack etch primer,it covers really well and using a low pressure high volume spray gun produces very little overspray or lost product in the air.
Note: always use a correct mask when using this product,thats a mask with filters,not a paper face mask.

Yesterday saw me move to the next stage of our own Toylander build,machine and hand sanding of the thin epoxy coating,that was around a four hour job,one of those power sanders with the pointed nose would speed things up in that process.
