I cant see any moisture trap David  Doing the roof etc should be interesting to watch if he falls over due to lack of oxygen  |

Perfect example of real innovation. Must be cheap.
Hope he hasn't got blue teeth.
Can't the club fly him over for the National?! Or try him out at the SARR first?
He'd probably fix vibration problems at 2000 rpm as well. The complete package.

Now there's a thought Peter! Many years ago we used something similar to 'fix' drawings to stop them smudging. Even then if you blew too hard it would send you a little dizzy. John, the operative has his own inbuilt 'moisture trap'. The video just made me chuckle and a little surprised at what can be achieved. |

As long as you can get paint to stick and harden, there's no end of finishing that can be done with W&D etc. |

Bluetooth!...of course. No wonder I can't understand who's on the line.
Is it the state of the teeth, his native language or the sprayer he's got in his mouth?!
Bet he can do coachlines perfectly too. Probably even happily married! (That was for Roy!)
David what sites are you frequenting to pick up stuff like this?

Anyone planning on repainting their Rover? A cost saving alternative I presume that you're all talking about a YouTube clip. All I see is David's line of text. However, I've just noticed that the link shows up in the quote as I type this. |

Warwick the youtube clip is called how to paint cars in Romania. Very strange the whole link appears on my screen immediately under your message?!

Just to add an alternative, here is the BMW paint shop. Impressive set up, yet even new BMW cars appear to suffer from 'orange peel'

It was Disconnect Me that was blocking the YouTube clip. It was also blocking the photo of the hearse in Zaphod's post. I just checked.
I wonder what it didn't like about those particular links? It isn't usually a problem.

He could use a bike pump...much less likely to pass out on the 'big' jobs.  |

My guess is that it's just a simple device that they use to touch-up minor blemishes and repairs, and that this guy has just decided to take it further for the sake of YouTube.

The device looks like an airbrush with a small glass reservoir fitting Warwick. (Just add air!)

I think it is a device original used to 'fix' drawings. Many years ago when I was studying we used a similar device to spray a fixative over illustrations to stop them smudging. It was very basic yet effective and you could get a very fine spray.

My last shipment of turps from Warwick must have been off...! French turps is better I think.
Having lived in NL I have possibly had more exposure to Smurfs and Father Abraham (Pierre Kartner)than many of my compatriots. Have never previously seen a Smurf this large however.Must have been on a good diet!
