Default LP2 VR 2225 Build

After a week of looking. It was time to make a start . Because I live on the coast I need to get a good coverage of metal primer on the inside of the hull so I gave it a light sand good clean out , prep washed all the drivers gunner compartment .Then I followed Darrins lead and hand painted all the edges and around all the blocks , fittings and the hard to get at places that the spray gun would not reach . Not much fun laying on your back upside down spraying under the fore deck .. Also test fitted Colins Bins and drilled the bolt holes so they can now come off for some green . I used PPG rustfighter 215 . This is the primer I used this on my jeep and trailer very good primer it even states on the Data sheet that it can be left for up to six month before top coats are required which gives me time to get the green on ..
