Yeah good read, especially as i'm doing something similar, how long did it take to strip the original paint off?

Enjoy your hols.

I remember reading this blog when you first started, nice to see you followed it to the end! Really like the nitro painting parts too. Cheers buddy.

It took about 2 full days. If I could offer some advice it would be take your time around the edges. Looking back at my project, the outer edges could be a lot smoother. Not bad though.

I'm going to tackle the electronics issues this week. Potentially get it looked at professionally if I still can't sort it.
