didnt know u can powerder coat candy
Candy is like a tinted clear mate, the effect is all in the base coat.
You can get candy powder but its powder quality aswell so youll always get the peel and imperfections

Nipped out under the cover of darkness last night and set about painting the block.
Cleaned it with the wire brush as best I could first
Attacked it with the high temp. satin paint (apart from the manifold contact points).
Front calipers removed
Made a start wirebrushing them but called it a night, want to get some sleep!
Lastly, wheel bolts blasted, will get them coated tomorrow hopefully.
More to come over the weekend!

Hope you've got some more pictures for us seen as the weekend is now officially over 
Even though this is going to be a chavy car when you're done, you're doing a great job on it. A massive attention to detail too! Would be fun to get it valued afterwards and see how much it's worth when you're done.

Mmm didn't really get an aweful lot done over the weekend, bloody women!
I finished off painting the exhaust, will leave it to dry over night & get it re-attached later on in the week.
It came out nice though, wire brush worked wonders on it.
Sorry for the crap pics, it's pitch black outside & I only had 1 of my lamps out with me.
On a side note, rims are going in for coating this week so hopefully get them back @ weekend along with the wheel bolts.
