When YFY 467 first arrived at TJ Bodyworx it was media blasted to enable the team to start from bare metal.
After panel beating an epoxy primer was applied to seal the metalwork acting as a rust protection, this process also offers a natural ground coat for the filler, keeping it locked away from the metal and preventing it taking on moisture. Next stage was fitting the Lenham GT fibre glass rear clam using fibre glass filler for bonding. Then a high solid filler primer was applied and it was then blocked in 120 sandpaper to get a nice flat surface for the light grey primer which was blocked with 500 sandpaper. Then YFY 467’s Aston Martin base colour was applied followed by a high solid clear coat. Once it was thoroughly dried it was block sanded and then the ascent colour was applied to the grille. Once the clear coat had cured TJ Bodyworx’s team wet sanded again with 1500, 2500, 3000 and 6000. The final process to YFY 467 bodywork will see it be polished up to a high shine. TJ Bodyworx use Max Meyer products made by PPG.
