that looks  :4_17_5: did you loose any of the grain effect

Blinking ell - were do I start...  :P

The bite marks I lightly filed off the raised bits and then filled the holes using fibreglass resin and a tooth pick to localise the repair

When that set, wet and dry paper '1200' to remove any excess, I also sanded any other marks on the seat at this stage, going in one direction as this stops the nylon fibres splitting.

I then gave it a light dusting of plastic primer and then on with a 'black paint pen', you get great coverage with these and because its not thick you don't loose grain as such, I purchased some laquer (semi gloss) from b & q and gave it 3 light coats.

I have used this process before, 6/8 months ago and the seat has took a lot of stick and it still looks great..

This is seat I did before - I used clear plastic primer on this.





The kashi will be at Chester - so you can have a closer look   8)
