Most of the bleaching is on the bonnet,cab and wings Richard. The only 'overdone' bleaching on the sides would be the door panels. Having now applied a filter and followed that by dots of white and yellow oil paint merged and blended with thinners, this is gradually fading. The next step will be to use AK Interactive weathering enamels I got from John to add streaks of dirt. It has to be just scruffy, not a lot of mud in the scenario I am placing it but it would not have been washed and polished much either. The final stage will be pin washing with a darkish brown oil. I will be using oil for the pin wash as I tend to get it all over the place, beauty about oil is that you can work the overspill out with a thinners dampened brush.

The seam on the clear tarp was not as bad as i thought and a little gentle sanding with a very thin stick sorted it out quite easily. It was then given a rub over with a polishing stick and job done. got lucky I suppose.
