To get even spaces use different size tape to come off an edge then tape off that. Will be nice and straight then.
Hmm I'm rambling. What design you doing

I don't mean straight lines. I'm actually ok at that, must be good at guessing. It's when pealing it off the edge isn't a nice hard line. I am putting as little as possible on but coverage isn't great on the PPG system so have to put a decent amount on. Do you leave it to dry for a long time?

I did a spray out the other week of this. Was actually primer that I lacquered and looks good. But it's weather it would look decent on the whole car.

That is pretty nice tbh. Think I'll have to do a spray out of that. Think the red leather will go or change leather colour?

grey with red leather is stunning, worked on so many with the exact colour combo.
just make sure its a bright red but a mattish looking leather rather than shiney

then sell to me

So much money will have been thrown at the car by then Tom I'll have to keep it for a few years yet!

I don't like shiney leather. That's why I loved the caddy interior, was matt and just looked alot more classy.

Think that's pretty much decided then.

Can also say it's painted a Ferrari colour aswell and then do what most people do and say it cost a shit load more as it's a Ferrari colour!

Tom you coming to PVS? could take the car away then for the free restoration!
