A proper lacepaint job requires more than just one layer of paint.

To be truly interesring and aesthetically pleasing it ideally should have several layers, colours to contrast, slight 'flake, and lots of lacquer

Not so interesting on a battered up 40 year old AMI8 with an ugly roofrack

Jozef,

i agree with you, it is not the same kind of car, and i don't want to get the same result, I'm not a painter.

i make it just because i like it, that's all... Very Happy

an what about my seat??? they are just 37 years old with the sun of south of France... they are "bien cuit" Laughing Laughing

I can see you're not a car painter Neutral

You would not have thought of doing it if you hadn't seen cars like the one I posted with such paint treatment, so if your interest is not quality when doing such a project, then what is the point of doing it ?
