    Faded Front Grill

    Just finished mine, 4 coats required, but it does look good. Cloth definately the way to go. Despite careful masking I still had to wipe mess of the paint. Probably best done if grill is removed. Really good product.

    enery 8! Tell us about how you brew your own diesel. Is it feasable, does it require loads of kit, what do you make it from etc. I guess this would make a good thread on it's own.
