well they took a good few weeks to get preped an ready before primer and spray block sander helps on the flat bits, the more curvey bits take longer but its def worth it jus make sure its smooth and no rough bits or bumps pics cumin soon when everything is finished and on the bike its gunna look sick :w00t:
i have been doin the foot boards and they y more or lest flate now i just need to do the little bits like the little vents and that but its only took me about 3 days of sanding
Me and Daniel172 have been sanding the footboards down over this weekend. Dan172 has managed to get the foot boards done in filler primer ready to for next stage's will post pic's 2 follow when they are done
i rushed these took about half hour would be alot better if i took my time but needs be was having probs with getting good laquering how many coats did u put of laquer and did u dust coat it or put it on fairley thick these were also done outside were did u do urs cheers steve
p.s do u sand inbetween the couler and laquer and inbetween laquer coats and what gades wet an dry u using cheers info appreciated ur panels look the dogs genitalia steve :w00t:
Before the inner panels was sprayed, all of the plastic was rubbed down so they was smooth and all the bumpy plastic was removed, Then went up in grade's of wet an dry sand paper to achieve a nice an smooth finish ready to paint on. Once filler primered you need to sand it down between coats with wet an dry paper to remove any spray dust/over spray till it is smooth all over then clean with warm water etc and carry on with you're next coats sanding between so it's smooth Hope this give's you more of a idea. Cheers Dan
yeah use wet an dry paper 1000/1200 with plently of water and sand between all coats apart from the last This should give out a nice finish depending on how much time you spend on it. If you want anymore help feel free to ask imp:
