The garage floor had already been painted for this job. It's a double garage so I was able to put the other body panels in the other side. Every corner was vacuum cleaned and I tried my best to create laboratory conditions. I hung up polythene on the walls and rigged up an extract fan with some ducting running outside. Here, the main body tub has just received a coat of etch primer.
I sprayed the main body tub 'British racing green' as a separate entity from the body panels. There are in fact, several different shades of British racing green. This shade is worryingly close to that used by the Bristol bus company in the 1960s and 70s! The paint was cellulose which shortly after I purchased it, was banned from general use. I believe you have to apply for a license (or something) to buy it now.
