MG Midget and Sprite General - I've been spraying... (NMC but it's a Mini..)

It works a whole lot better in the warm sunshine than in the cold feb when I did the midget...

I'm well chuffed with it, the pictures are the finish from the gun without any polishing at all.

What size compressor did you use as I have a respray on my wish list over the next few years and intend to do at least the donkey work my self and spray the priner etc.

Looking good Rob, the warm weather makes a big difference, also you're an old hand at spraying now!!

thanks!

compressor is a bog standard cheapo screwfix special, nothing posh and only just runs the gun it came with. I can find out what it says on it if that helps. Really useful for tyres too.

it really is 90% prep, but nothing beats putting the colour on!

Thanks Rob

Just the size of the cylinder 25L or 50L

I agree that the prep is what makes the job.

Cheers

It's 6.

yep, 6 Litres. The motor runs fairly continuously and you have to stop every 3 coats to empty the water put of the tank...

I've just finished the mini, so more pics to come!
