Next big job to tackle was the under sealing . It is important with GRP cars that under seal is applied to reduce the risk of star crazing, caused by stones flying off the wheels and hitting the underside of the wings. I used IsoFlex (bought from screwfix as it was the cheapest when I looked), as others had used this product. - it goes everywhere! It has the consistency of black tar and has to be applied 12 to 24 hours apart .
So 3 days spoken for two coats on the underside and three coats on the wings as others had done .
first mistake painted from the tin so by the end of the first day the "tar" was that thick it was unusable.

| Undersealed front wing with the "frog" masking tape still in place . |
Second day and another tin later poored into a take away dish much better enlisted help of (un)willing son.
If I hadn't made the first mistake I would have got away with using 1 tin, lesson learnt.
At least its done now.

and it just started to rain !!
All done now finally
