£40 spray booth results

So after sanding the parts down for two and a half years (that’s how long it felt like!) I got to the point where I was ready to paint them. It really was just the bonnet, but more on this later. I started looking at some cheap pop-up gazebos as I only needed it for one time use. Most of eBay and Amazon offers were around £60-90 but being cheap skates I challenged myself of finding one for under £50. Aaand good old google helped a lot – £39.99 for 3x3m with four sides delivered to my door!

Sanding is not fun. At all.

As I am trying to repair the MG at minimum cost means I have to do many things myself. Not being keen on paying £600+ for new bonnet which only comes primed I decided to try repairing red bonnet (as seen in the last post) myself. This means repairing dents to minimum damage, sanding down, filling, sanding, priming, sanding, sanding and then priming and filling again.. In short, endless sandpaper usage.
