Yup. Patience is key. I spotted a couple flaws that will need touching up before seal coat too. As expected...!

I'll absolutely give you a high-five! With the current exchange rate, does that work out to a high-seven and a half or something by the time it gets to you?

I love the crisp body line down the whole side. Especially where bodywork often muddies it out over the rear wheel arches. Looks great!

[wheee!]

Thanks guys! I’m glad I got my MSA order in last month! Saved about $50 in exchange rate. Still a few things to order but I’m gonna wait till the dollar recovers a bit.

Sanding is going awesome! Slow but the results are good. So satisfying to see the roof sand out flat...!

First pass of the long block over the hi build on the door. The dent and repair took many hours of sanding and filling, but now I see it was all worth it! Flat!!!

Looks great. It will go much faster now!

All sanded. Feels smooth like glass! Now to wash the whole car with soap and water, then re-mask the car and spray sealer before the base coat.

Seal coat sprayed this morning !





The finish was good but not smooth as it was before I sprayed the seal coat. So I broke down and sanded it all down again with 1000 grit, just enough to bring the glass like feel to the panels again. Tomorrow is the day for paint!!
