A progress update, I work each day at the surface and paint finish of this cab, it's coming along quite well. I'll focus on getting the control panels done first but I'm spraying all painted parts daily and sanding them back. This one's yellow paint finish is done. I was going to paint the middle sections of these black (see the concept render) but I've decided to use permanent vinyl (matched black) wrap instead. The vinyl surface is better for game playing and should look really nice as well. I'm not going to post umpteen pics of surface finishing but will next update when I start assembling different finished parts. |

Wow... So, again, what was your protocol for sanding and polishing that results in a mirror?! :notworthy: |

Using a heater during winter (IMO electric bar radiator best) helps bring out the gloss and shorten drying time, not really needed in the Aussie summer. Beware of dust :D Time to watch Ond's latest vids. |
