Man Guns,
I still have a full set of 79 935 bodywork. I thought maybe too radical for the street. But now maybe I might have to plane a redo????? And you blame us for for being a bad influence!

Reaper930,

That is a great 'double-black-diamond' quote.
Keep up the good work.

Best,
Grady

Bwahhhhh! LOL!!!!
Reaper, are you both a 'superb driver and dedicated killer?' Comon bro, fess up... you really are retired 'Prostonovich' trying to relive your glory days Begs the question of which Pelicanites are gonna be your wingmen? You gonna install 4wd in case you meet up with any goobers in a stretch Bricklin with machine guns and flamethrowers?
For a low budget flick, they sure trashed some expensive machinery.

Looks like flat black is the latest 'it' color. The latest gemballa CGT iteration/monstrosity. Don't really understand why they have to f*** so much with such a naturally beautiful design. Is the gaudy taste of all the new $120+ a barrel oil gazzillionaires what is driving this market?

Paint

What brand of primer and paint did you use? If you have the catalog # that would be great. It might be time to paint my spare kart satin black. Is it just a lacquer paint? Also what spray gun did you use?

Paint is PPG black, the clear coat mixed in at 20% ratio is called "Flexed n' Flat" also made by PPG. Don't have a catalog number sorry, the shop in Van Nuys handled all that stuff. PM me if you want the shops info to give them a call.

How do you maintain that paint? Can you wash and wax it? If not do you just let it oxidize and ware off the car?
I don't think it would look bad waxed. It needs a little sheen which adds to the mistique and stealth.

My Aprilia has large sections of that matt/satin paint on it's factory bodywork, you have to wash with very mild detergent to get rid of the finger prints, chamois then wait til it completely dries it self then dont touch! It shows finger prints really badly as the oil from your fingers make shiny spots, the slightest scratch, scuff anything, also shows up bit time. It's a PITA but worth it when it's all clean, looks awesome on this car!

Brian,

Word from the shop is to lightly wax and use a cleaner before every wax application to prevent build up. Also light detergent bath and I need to have the water do the scrubbing. The darker sheen that the body has can be maintained without going too shiny by the wax remover/body cleaner.

How do you "lightly wax"?
Does that mean use a wax/cleaner combo and avoid hard waxes like carnuba?

Correct, the wax to be used has to be a spray wax with low carnuba content as to not leave a layer to glaze on the paint by rubbing etc. It should be much easier to maintain then the paint on Spence's Aprilla due to the fact it has a clear coat mixed in which will aid in the paint not absorbing the fingerprints so easily.
