  7. yeah, sandblasting takes a little longer than i expected, its actually quite a slow process then just sanded the DOHC and the top of the cam cover to give them the shine. i think the matt metal looks really good, looks brand new
  8. this weekend i decided to brighten up my engine bay with some serious sandblasting! i was quite suprised with the outcomes, i didnt expect them to come out this well think im going to take as much of the engine as i can to bits next week to get on the rest of it!!
  9. does the granual size matter, can the gun run most grades are some more effective? out of curiosity what is kiln dried sand used for? cheers
  10. I was thinking about sandblasting my manifold and cam cover this weekend but wasnt sure if you need a specific grade of sand to do these parts or for my gun? does anyone know anything about this and where i can get hold of the necessary sand? cheers
  11. well first things first gotta take care of the headlights and wipers. it needs a cam belt change so will hopefully do that this weekend and whilst im at it im gonna put the KR cam on and do some cleaning of my manifold and cam cover. will get pics up after the weekend Then wheels suspension, door handles, panel filter etc
  12. I used to be a mini man a few years ago but need a more practical car to love! The only draw back is my mini was quicker than my rado!!! This was my last mini 108 bhp at the raod! Any way bought this not long ago and im really happy with it. It came pretty much completely standard as far as i know so first jobs are wipers and headlights asap!! o and getting a smaller splitter cos i cant get in and out of my drive but i think praise b the LOweReD is on the case with that for me Bodywork is awsome with only a few stone chips on the bonnet to worry about! any comments or ideas welcome.
