Ahhh helmet spraying.....was it a white label with a red 3M?... That'd more than likely be standard rubbing compound then, maybe the extra cut stuff.

Think its called 3M scratch remover now.

That looks like the old polishing compound bottle, maybe the glass polishing compound.

Hmmm I might just ask the lads to grab one of each available,

Thanks for taking the time to post stuff up John.

It's not easy to get such a good gloss finish, especially on black. Lovely job on the body work, just be carefull you don't mark it putting the engine in. It can't be many cars that you fit the engine into so late in the build!

I had some trouble fitting the engine, had to file down the transmission a bit.

I always think, do a car, seems to be difficult... as Richard said, one of the reasons is do a good gloss finish, isn't easy.

You have nailed John!!!

Looking real tasty now john! liking the gloves too, i nicked some of my missus' cotton gloves too (the ones meant for putting on when you put loads of hand cream on and then go to bed!) when i did the F117 to avoid greasy fingerprints on the matt black finish. Looking forward to seeing the engine go in , cheers tony
