Thanks for the kind words guys.

Really nice result Nick... really does look good.
Im glad the stencils worked out for you.
I always kinda hold my breath when i see a pic of a finished cab with my stencils in case it hasnt gone right..

Sitting here smiling away.. very satisfying for me i must admit.
Thanks for posting mate.. is a bloody nice looking cabinet!

The stencils were really good Gav, one was a tad out, but with a little wiggling I got it right.

I'll be hitting you up for another set for the other JP now I'm feeling confident.


Looks great  ^^^

The spots came up really well.
What type of paint? Enamel or Acrylic? Sprayed or brushed on?
Starting my first repaint myself, so I am keen to get all the info I can.

Cheers
Dave

I don't have a spray gun, and can't find the motivation to want to learn their intricacies.

The paint is a quality lacquer paint (or so my brother tells me). Brand is Anchor, I suspect most automotive paint supply shops will keep it. Goes on beautifully and dries to touch in 10 minutes.

The specs were done with a toothbrush - dip in paint (not too heavy on the amount) and flick by running a finger over. Practiced a little on some cardboard until I felt confident.
