Looking good Matt. Planking on the facade of the head is very common. The Pro Football had to have the entire facade replaced, it was damaged beyond repair. You have done a great job so far, and the parts should be in this week !

White and webbing applied, I ended up using a spray gun for the webbing, nozzle opened up at about 40psi.
Just waiting for Gav for some stencils now to finish off the cab.

A little scary as there is no going back (well, there is but it would take a lot of sanding), just have to take it easy, you can always add more, I just practiced on some white cardboard.
Tried the wire brush method first, then the toothbrush method, then though I'd use the spray gun, heaps easier and way less mess, plus that is the way it was originally done apparently.
I used the flyer as a rough idea on how much webbing to do.  I have seen pics with way more and some with less, so I kinda went half way.

I recieved the second email. Not surprised I didn't recieve your first. I'm changing ISPs at the end of the month, because they screwed up my email.

Anyway - The project is moving along nicely - I've VERY impressed with the splatter !

Need some opinions please…

I am hoping to have enough time to restore the PF as well, I need to remove the mylar and do a few small touch-ups.

Should I re-cover the PF with new mylar to protect the touched up artwork?

I am not a huge fan of mylar, but I think it would probably be best as the PF is in nice condition other than a few pin head areas missing a little paint and under bumper wear

All the inserts are slightly dished, do I need to rectify these or just put new mylar over the top?
