Thanks Retro

The hard work was all in the prep, getting the surfaces rubbed down so they were very good, using pre-paint (like panel wipe). I put on a dust coat, waited for 15 mins, then the thicher coat which was wet enough to settle really glossy, but not too much that it would run.

It is now on the engine, torqued down in place etc, but will wait for another week or so for it to really harden before I start the engine. I dont know if that will help, but I aint taking the mini anywhere this winter anyway.

The heat from the engine will help harden it....again, looks great!
