  • I made a mistake and primed the engine bay in Etch primer instead of Epoxy primer. I could have used the etch and primed then filled but had in my head I wanted to use Epoxy so decided to sand all of the engine bay back to bare metal and start again. Then moved on to the filler stages!

    What about all the Etch Primer under the stone chip will that be ok, I raptor'd the underside of my 306 and it all fell off and I even used Raptors own Etch primer, hope you don't end up like that, I was sick I spent weeks on my back cleaning the underside for it to peal,

    It may not be exciting but it’s important work so it all adds to the content. And honest about what has to happen when you are building up a car.

    Looking good Dan and you are making progress now which should give you more confidence to keep moving forward, I really didn't envy you doing all the sanding, painting, filling and even more painting on the engine bay as that is horrible and time consuming but I will just say that you really should be waring a respirator when you are sanding as the dust is very bad for you, anyway mate keep up the good work 🙏👍

      Thank you! Yeah the dust isn't the best. The Mrs had a go about not wearing a mask too 😂
