Re: The Black Thread.

Greyness is everywhere Chris. There's no escaping it man. It's in the 'air, it's in the water.......

Nowhere to hide dood. Even inside a black car with black windows, there is greyness.

Silver threads.........

What about a bunch of black bears raiding a black forest campground at midnight ?? I see no grey there! Grey is just a shade that cant make up its mind in a world thats black and white

Re: The Black Thread.

Ok so heres a question, should I just live with the peeling sunburnt clearcoat on faded ebony finish..... or would it look better sanded down and primered flat black for now until I can get it painted?? PREPARE TO SCREAM IN HORROR AT PICS BELOW

Chris, you have some cheek chasing grey people out of the black thread, and all the time you are driving a black car that looks like that!!

Re: The Black Thread.

In reply to your question, I would not waste time and energy sanding down and putting black primer on it if it was my car. Leave it alone. All or nothing.

The reason I say that, it is the sanding and buffering and quality of the primer job that makes the finished article look new, like from the showroom. Best to do it all together is how I would feel about it.

Joe
