After the shaping process the car is sprayed with 3 coats of PVA white paint. Each new coat is only done if the previous coat is dry. The PVA is sprayed on to allow the glass fibre to grab onto the foam. The foam absorbs the PVA clogging the pores and sealing the foam, which help us using less epoxy with the glass fibre process.
The holes in the car which was used to insert the steel pipes are closed up with polyfilla and let to dry.
Polyfilla is aslo used to fill the gaps between the foam and hardboard.
The polyfilla have been sanded using 80 grit sandpaper.
