Stuff you have painted today

[Dcal]

Also at the weekend, I painted the inside of a couple of Land Cruiser front wings.

They are best Chinese steel and the rust was already showing under the ecoat.

They are proper junk but at least they are available and better than what was on it.

Given the province of the wings, I gave them a quick sweep blast to get a good key.
Wherever the coating came off I went to bare steel.

Then 3 coats of International Interzone 954 wet on wet with a 2.5 tipped gravity gun.
I used just over half a litre of mixed paint. It's not pretty but it will be needed to try and get these wing to last more than a couple of years.

I dont have good "pre" photos, but it was crash damaged (minor) -

Access to the other side was poor - whilst i managed to hammer most of it, i had to use some filler on a bit -

(clearly a mid way though photo, rather than the final filler!)

More or less finished -

Again, no pre-photo. I didnt bother to get this one hot dipped, as (i thought) was in a rush. Just phosphoric painted out, and pressure washed off and dried in an oven -

I mean, its a foot pedal. Its not like it needs to be polished!
