Scotchbrited first to remove the oxide layer, degreased it lots, then primed with decent primer.
Sanded and colour shot to match the rest of the car.
Looks way better though and I will eventually paint all the aluminium the same!
Welcome to my Lotus 7 Replica Blog
I intend to use this blog to show the various stages as I rebuild an old Lotus 7 replica from a bit of a mess to something respectable.
Along the way i'll detail the procedures required and hopefully inspire others to do similar.

Painted scuttle
Decided to paint the scuttle orange too, required quite a bit of prep work as it is aluminium.
Scotchbrited first to remove the oxide layer, degreased it lots, then primed with decent primer.
Sanded and colour shot to match the rest of the car.
