mik i think ive got most of the pin holes out...pretty much over caring now. gone over the roof about 4 times now, but have to go over the front valance again as ive only gone over it ones. and then have another look to see if theres any obvious spots that still need sanding....then hit it with 1000

D, the roof near on looks like a mirror from just wet rubbing with 400. but can still see sanding marks so i can see why you would go smoother

did ya use a microfiller nick? that should take out most of the pinholes, hi-fill won't fill them as good. or just mix up a real runny mix of bog and squeeze it into the pinholes using a torch shining across the surface to find em. i only know cos i was doing that last weekend!

its the high fill that caused the pin holes. as its finish was so rough its just all the low spots that were in it after sanding it back

i have now learnt, dont use high fill

so getting the thing sorta smooth now, spent the arvo going over the car one panel at a time getting rid of pin holes. got half the roof, passengers side of the car ane the front section sorta done

thought i'd take some pics so thats theres something to look at in the thread. pulled all the masking off so theres now a little bit of colour on the car










as you can see, alot of paint is coming off the roof to get rid of the pin holes. great fun

painted tunnel looks factory- thats a positive of the dark green, makes it all look stock as.

Yeah looks sweet mate well done, Your an inspiration among other things.

haha mik doesnt look so factory up close. well i guess it could pass as an auto tunnel thats had a section welded in at the back possibly
but the welds are pretty visable

cheers andy, the pics inspire me to get the thing done also

well not much going on here in the last 2 weeks, done a little bit more sanding and got some more primer to go over the roof again

should hopefully have a daily soon, 80s v8 luxury goodness, so that the wagon wont really be a rush to finish...not that it really is now anyway

you getting dans 4x4?

is that 'lagwagon green'? :D
