It seemed like it, anyway..!

One of the hottest days of the year, but the garage area is in shade post meridian so I thought I'd do a little fettling, as you do..

I've been getting more and more cheesed off with having a black grille and seeing a bright area behind it. It just kind of niggles, you know? If it was body coloured, I'd be happy. But not silver/grey, not with the black radiator behind it.

So I set to & took the plate box off to get at the grille and it landed on my knees as I looked at it. Easy, then..!

Dug out some matt black from the depths of the garage and set to with a disposable brush. I say disposable because I was out of thinners, it was too hot to go and get some.

By the time I'd finished, the heat was making the paint and brush like painting with a yard brush..!! It was like a giant cotton bud by the end, nut 'tis done now.

Phew!
