Spot-on toys Austin Cambridge A60

Ойын-сауық

in this video I'm restring a very tired and worn out spot on A60 that most certainly deserves a peaceful retirement in my little collection

    You make the paint look so easy ! Why oh why did I keep getting splutter and a blocked air brush ? Frustration made me give up and use rattle cans . ( wrong pressure , not thining the paint enough , damaged needle ? ) lovely result on the restoration by the way . I presume lots of experience helps .

    Lovely job, beautiful result 👍🏻👌🏻👏🏻 That’s a real 60s looking paint job.... Have you considered using a curved blade for scraping away the ‘chrome’ trim? It makes it easier to keep the blade off everything other than the raised line you’re actually aiming at, I find.
