Thank you mate, that is very kind indeed.
Allen, don't know about a fine wine a cheap lager might be closer.
He is not far off mate the way I feel some days.
You can come out mate, honest.
Following another very prompt delivery from John in the shop my paint arrived. The engine following a black pre shade received a coat of Tamyia Aluminium. This was followed with a very thinned down coat of Valleyo smoke. The details such as the HT leads and spark plug caps, battery and tray were then picked out. Then an oil wash with diluted W&N black was applied to pick out the details.
Final detailing will follow when this has dried thoroughly.
Next the sidecar gearbox was treated the same way as the engine with the exception that Tamyia dark yellow was used as well.
The frame halves have also received a coat of flat yellow ready for assembly.
cheers

Wow Cabernet 1943 Buddy, that wash really makes the details pop and sits nice in the nooks and cranny's where oil would accumulate. How long does the W&N oil wash take to dry??? Great work Paul!!!...

Thanks my friend It's my go to wash a lot cheaper than the after market washes and you can make it as thick or thin as you need. It doesn't take long to dry but I normally leave it over night just to make sure. What I normally do is leave it for about and hour then remove the excess with a soft brush dampened with white spirit.
That's a SUPERB finish! And great that you've detailed the painting steps taken - very helpful. :thumb2:
Thanks Paul, I'm glad the steps used made sense.
Wow Scottie
Thanks Mick, you are to kind.
Rick,
I use the white spirit to thin the paint in a small pot as I'm using it.
That is looking superb.
Thanks you Jim.
That thumper/boxer looks very nice.
Thanks Ian glad you approve.
Cheers Andy.
Graeme thanks mate. There is a little to do.

Excellent stuff mate.
