sidrick Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I didn't know you could paint on top of POR15 I've only seen it used as a hardcore version of hammerite or underseal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sortedford Posted May 10, 2013 Author Share Posted May 10, 2013 Yeh theres a special primer the whole underside, engine bay and inner floor is done in it, then the special primer. Its expensive but should be worth it.They do a product called whitecoate too which is an over coat for POR15 due to it not doing well if left un treated in UV.

sortedford Posted May 19, 2013 Author Share Posted May 19, 2013 As it happens, yes http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/sortedford/S1%20Restore/IMG_2795Large_zps0fc0c2eb.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/sortedford/S1%20Restore/IMG_2796Large_zps63feccf5.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/sortedford/S1%20Restore/IMG_2797Large_zps9782c3cb.jpgBits stripped for the powder coaters http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/sortedford/S1%20Restore/IMG_2811Large_zps8edb0e49.jpgInner wing finally almost there http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/sortedford/S1%20Restore/IMG_2805Large_zps4cc72a9b.jpgNew adjustable rear droplinks we've made up. Threads need shortening and nuts adding to lock (but you get the idea). http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/sortedford/S1%20Restore/IMG_2812Large_zps9d719511.jpgNew top mounts fitted, should be a bit better than the old rubber ones http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/sortedford/S1%20Restore/IMG_2801Large_zps54a3f003.jpgFinally for the weekend doors are fitted (test fitted).Wings have been tested and they will need a bit of work to get them to a level I'm happy with, but if my friend is free in the week we should get them on then Other bits that I've forgot to bring photos home of :Rear ARB modified - studs removed, holes enlarged and M10 bolt welded in.Rear arms - ARB bracket which I had fabricated has been drilled to accept M10 bolts. Next to do this week:Drop the bits to the powder coaters and buy the paint Feels like I'm getting somewhere now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
