Great work Steven! I wish i had the space to get stuck into stripping things back as far down as you have. Its going to be epic once your all done!
Cool, how come you have primed again after seam sealing rather than going straight on with the raptor?
Just for piece of mind really as had regular stonechip not stick before to seam sealer. The raptor seems bulletproof but time will tell.
I see. Amazing work btw, I can appreciate the hours that must have gone into this as I am currently going through the same process with my 8v gti and the underside is very nearly there. Its always more work/time than you expect. I also cannot believe how clean and rot free your shell is. Mine required a fair bit more welding.
2, if I was to do it again I would lay some base coat colour down first let flash off then apply raptor. Only reason is you can easily miss bits and see grey primer with a torch.
Did mine lastnight, used 5 litres and was able to get good coverage with a couple of coats and nice and thick on key areas and arches
