Fecking love these things. White is by far the best colour for them.
Frozen White - is that the pearlescent one used on Focus STs?

i lost count the amount of White fiesta ST's that came from the factory in Frozen with paint warranty complaints, for some reason at the factory the inner door shuts on the sills didnt have enough paint applied and it was really thin you could nearly see through it
avrg paint depth : 109-120
sills :60-80
S2 looks good in white to

painters at my old place used to go fecking mad lol
they didnt like the focus st either in orange, for some reason some had come from factoy with 3 coats of base others 4 so getting blending match was an arse. thank fuck i trained as a panel beater lol ![](/board/images/smile/lol.gif)
prepping is the gayest, tedious job on earth!

Dad uses that frozen white near enough every day at work. He repairs vans and mostly does transits and the connects.
Be nice to see some pics of the RST finished though!
