I got them from a local glass accessories shop. They work very well, and were quite cheap, I think $12 (£6) each. Masking tape is really good for locating things laterally, and these are good for applying clamping pressure.

Looking good! What paint are you guys using over there, I was in Australia last year and took my sister-in-laws car to the bodyshop and he was telling me they're still using solvent, they're just starting to make the change to water base but its pretty rare. Obviously here in UK the refinish industry has been on water for over 15 years!

It is Glasurit water base. I am not sure how long they have been using water based system here for, certainly not 15 years though!

It is a complete MS-RT kit. Looks great, but don't hit anything, brittle as hell! :cry:
