Seat done



Took this just after the first coat but got another on now.

Too easy!

when painting yellow top coats .... ALWAYS ALWAYS apply a couple of white coats first, then yellow .... why?

if no white base, it'll take more coats of yellow to cover the "grey primer" (say 4 or more coats depending on a few different varying factors, like, viscosity or acrylic or enamel, for example), than opposed to applying 2 coats of yellow over the white base coat, giving you 100% coverage with less top coats applied.

Good advice. When I started painting I was thinking it would have been easier going over white than grey. Oh well, now I know for next time. I have another can so not a disaster but definitely would have been easier!
