    Was a great episode showing what goes on in the background for a decent job.

    But why no slather the Mira in "bondo"????? Hopefully show the seppos you don't need kilos of the stuff to paint a car.

      How good does it look all painted though?
      Did you end up throwing extra metallic etc in or is it the same as OE?

        its just got a course metallic instead of fine. i really didn't want to go to crazy with custom colour as too much pearl and metal and it ends up too auto salon and not enough 27 year old JDM

          Good stuff with the Mira.

          Poor old paint rep watching them use concept primer, thinner and clear with their fancy basecoat Everyone does it, the concept stuff is good but it's the paint sales guy's worst headache.

            There were some pretty fancy colours coming out of Japan back then. Mazda had a really dark green called Excellent Green, looked black alot of the time but when the light hit it you could see it was actually green with a heap of gold mica in it.

              Just watched the Mira paint episode, was quite interesting to see all the behind the scenes thanks.

              I wouldn't have had the patience to film all that over 5 days, glad you did. Id be super keen to just get it blown apart and done asap haha. Its so labour intensive like you said to paint an old car.

              Looks great, should be awesome once its back together.

                Paint looks great, be very very happy if I never paint another myself.

                  Always so very satisfying watching a car get prepped and receive fresh paint vs. always so triggering remembering spending weeks prepping a car for paint and having the fresh paint reveal spots you didn't quite prep enough.

                  Would watch again.

                    I was thinking more poor painter still having to using solvent basecoat, fuck ever using that again. Great ep again as always and great to see the Mira back.

                      Why? Does it cause runs?

                        You also don't want it to be too different if you ever want to do touch ups or paint any new bits.





                        So, when is the Cordia episode going up?
