I wish I had friends like Leon...

Car looked to be in pretty good shape. What was the original color - Q5? I love Q5


hemi-hampton

Missing the fender tag, Have to ask him if he has it, Don't think it is the Q5 Turqouis, more like a light blue, maybe B3 ? LEON.

hemi-hampton

Pics of it painted. LEON.

hemi-hampton

Pic outside. Used PPG Concept DCC #9300 Single Stage Black. No Clear. LEON.

myk

Will there be no clear applied at all?

hemi-hampton

NO, No clear at all. Painted some parts, doors, trunk, Misc. LEON.

myk

Why do people choose not have a clear coat?

JR

MYK, single stage paint usually makes for a more vibrant, richer color over base/clear. Blacks look blacker, colors look deeper.

If the car is stored indoors there isnt much risk of fading from UV rays, so there isnt really a disadvantage in this case.

Thats what Ive always been told, anyways.

That RR turned out beautiful Leon. Will it get the flat black hood stripes too?

The hood is suppose to get the organisol black stripes but I really want nothing to do with the hood because it's a mess :brickwall: LEON.
