BullardRM -> Cockpit floor (5/14/2008 1:04:07 AM)

I'm finishing up a Carden Extra and was looking for suggestions on how to finish of the cockpit floor. I have the instrument panel and pilot that look great, but would like to complement the two with a nice looking finish on the floor. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Most guys use the speckled spray paint with greys, whites and blacks. Adds a very nice textured finished to the cockpit.
Be warned it takes a TON of this stuff to cover and get a nice finish.
The trick is to put a light coat of grey paint down first and then just a very light coat of the speckle paint on top.

here's one of mine done this way.

good luck.
Steve
