it'll take loads of cans to do a half decent job mate but it'll be worth it in the end, i'm sure it'll look hard as fcuk. keep at it and i look forward to seeing it soon, are you going to mersea in a few weeks?

Why not get the spray gun out and do it that way?

you can buy a litre of celly cheaper than a load of cans, and it the same but quicker

I know a very good pinstripper, the only downside is he lives in Cornwall. Tootall is a top bloke. smile.gif He should be at Wheels Day Good Friday 2010 and then the other top shows like Billing, Supernats & of course the Nats.
