What paint did you use? and how long does it take to dry? Looks good but will look even better when you mop it or is it meant to be matt?  Thumb

Desided on white weather strips [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]


Wheels now done, also done the tyre walls so they will crack and get a weathered look [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
