    Not sure, i havnt tried with the runs yet. Should be pretty easy though, just one on the guard and one at the bottom of the B-pillar. A light run with 600grit should do the trick.

    Wondering whether i should go over the entire car lightly with 600 for the topcoat to grip to...

    you have a 8-12hr period(ins some case 24hrs depending on brand of paint and thinners/hardener used), where you can get away with going over 2-ac paint with out having to rub it down.
    altho a nice wet maron scotching and a quick denibbing would do a treat.
    after the period your paint will just peel off as its got nothing to bite in to.
    also you will have to paint it again as you would a normal car 2-2.5 coats.

    Yeah, ill rub it down with 600grit and then hit it again. Did two full coats wet on wet last time before i gassed out the garage (and thats with the four big fans set to exhaust).

    Trying to decide on the colour scheme, current options are black or white bonnet, and black or white mirrors.

    Did a few quick photoshops to give an idea.







    Thoughts?
