Phils best mini that he sprayed I think was a white one and he has sprayed a few in his time, but the white one looked much better than the others.

the hardeast colour to paint is red, as its very hard to colour match, but also black shows up the tiniest ipmerfections.

White is defiantly the easiest colour i have sprayed, It doesnt show faults as much, Avoid Black unless you are very good and totally dust free as it will show every imperfection  ok phil ganna be done in my garage so i think dust is ganna be arround no matter how much i try top avoid it although i am going to be putting polythene around the walls and a ground on the vehicle im more than shore it will get in the paint we will see what happens worst come to worst il pay a pro to do it if i mess up! |
