Little pleased with this so I thought I would share it.
Any advise would be appreciated .
Also I have some rcs body prep how do we use it spray it on and leave it.
Spray it on and remove when the colour is finished

nice job looks pretty cool
RCS body prep use before or between coats to stop static over spray, lightly spray on then wipe off

PS even more awesome than your paint job is making it stick to the roof

When I've sprayed the body prep I just dust on 2 coats and go straight over the top, I've never wiped it off ? I don't think Jon does either, hopefully he'll be a long to clarify that shortly.

I consider this as a good suggestion in order you to have a good one. However, don't make a habit to use a spray instead apply it gently.

Looking good mate, well done.

As for the prep, I apply to the section to be painted, two very light mist coats and then take a heat gun to it for 5 seconds or so.
Make sure your gun is free of moisture when using it as it can affect the performance.

I'll throw my 2p into the bodyprep discussion. 2 light mist coats, apply some heat, as Jon Suggests. I use it every section without fail. Proper miracle spray.

What does the spray do? or what does it stop happening?

Helps eliminate static and surface residue/contaminants, providing smoother blending/fades etc
