Good start, and I like the idea of the "coloured" primer. Was advised to do the same ... did not ... And am now redoing my spray job as a result. We all learn! But great job so far.

This bug turned out to be quite a hand full. But its almost done now.
The roof did get primer on the final coat. It was nice and smooth so i left it for last. Cheers Ferdi.
