Now Wayne I think I have heard you mention before that you start from the outside and work your way in right?It also appears that you are doing puffs of paint as opposed to a general spray giving the texture or faded appearence?35PSI ?? Man that is high!With my Badger 150 I seldom go up to 20PSI but maybe I have been wrong in my think'in.I will have too play around with that some out of curiousity for your fades really do look the trick.Cheers Kevin

Usually go around the panel lines first and then mottle the paint inside the panel, gradually building up the density...at the higher pressure you must be careful on the trigger with paint and air mix as you can easily make a mistake.....must concentrate the whole time.....takes quite a while to get the texture right....so far the 2 greens have taken about 5 hours to apply and I'm not even half way!

Thanks guys!

Will probably mask canopy sections tomorrow, can't take the 88 to work, need to collect my Mum at the hospital and take her home, monthly Doctor's visit, not enough room for both of them...:D
