Quick fix, upload them to facebook, and copy the image code directly into Saxp. Or change to imageshack. I prefer to that PB.

Some facebook accounts have their privacy settings set to private so a link wont work here. Image shack is jus plain fucking awful and takes 10 years to loads up images.

Imageshack is good if you have the desktop uploader. More reliable than PB in my experiance.

Anyway, I'm gonna stop spamming this thread lol. Can't wait for the update!

spray booth is to bake it and make it dry faster.. it dont matter where u spray it mine was sprayed like that but then baked..
it will be a good finish as its obv going to be buffed and polished..
so stop being harsh with your comments at the end of the day its sprayed and im sure as he is going euro it will be shit hot
The End

Ha! It does matter where its sprayed, hahaha that's awesome, funniest thing I've seen in ages. Proper booths have extractors/filters and make sure there is no dust or dirt in the air. If it's been painted in an open, dirty garage then the paint finish will show that. I've recently had my car resprayed by BMW obviously in a booth and I even sent that back initially as I wasn't happy with the finish.

At the end of the day Sexooooooo got abused for bodging his paintjob but at least he painted it in a spray booth and not an open workshop.

It was done on insurance and I wasn't happy as the paint had orange peel in places so I sent it back. All I'm saying (and not knocking what ur doing as the car should look good when done) is that if i had orange peel from a BMW bodyshop then what will your finish be like?

As you say, prove everyone wrong with some high res pics (no camera phone shit) when it's done. I might be at the next cleaneduk meet if it'll be done by then? Could always give u the load of paperwork/service history I still have here for it

ive seen 5 or 6 full cars sprayed in workshops like this if the painter is good it can come out perfect! yes booths help but i have seen cars painted this way and they can be just as perfect!

The best sprayer with the best equipment in the world will still get orange peel, paint doesnt go 100% flat! Needs flatting and polishing after to remove the peel & that again depeneds on the time and skill of the guy doing it.
