Paint arrived quickly from the UK! It is waterbased, which I have no experience.

Yes! No question that I got it a lot faster than I'll be getting to it.

I never matched the MK2 colors or worked with Latex paint. Let us know how it comes out, at least it is a candy system and not just a car color.

Paintworks, I think I asked you about it a couple years ago, and you said the same. Guess there just aren't that many of these getting painted. I have a couple other projects on the bench, but I intend to get to this while it's warm and dry here (in CA)
This is how it sits now. It's been repainted in a non-metallic blue. I sprayed the tail with some Suzuki GSXR paint, as a test. I have the decals on the way

I know I’m late for class but yesterday I had a great conversation with the owner of WFO Custom Paint. He sounded like a really solid guy. He mentioned he sells paint also.
