I see your going from black to white, how many coats you needing to lay down before you achieve full hiding?

The paint I'm using seems to be covering quite well, the door shuts will be left at 1 coat. When it comes to spraying the whole body it will probably take 2 or 3 to get it looking as bright and clean as i want it

Got some pictures in the daylight of the painted parts of the car today, also fitted some bits and pieces back on such as the boot handle, spoiler and ford badge
The rest should be sprayed this week some time hopefully

Looks decent, I take it you didn't have the space to do the whole car in 1 hit?

Got the car in again last night to finish off the paint, fitted some of the air vents back in the car and sprayed the blue part of the ford badge at the front black. Will eventually get a debadged grill for the front.
More updates soon
