[TR] tr3 paint

my question - they've painted the tub, and I'm  wondering if the inner 
fenders etc are supposed to be buffed (glossy) or  not.
 




If you are talking about the inner fenders in the engine compartment the  
answer is yes.  The underside of the bonnet as well as the firewall should  
be wet sanded with at least 600 grit.  While you are at it the inner  fenders 
in the boot and the underside of the boot lid should be  included.  You 
will never have a better time to do it right!
 
I volunteered to do that exact thing when my TR2 was going through the  
process.  I felt I could do the wet sanding better and cheaper than the  shop 
flunky at the standard $60 per hour.
