I've been too busy lately, to take the time to post pics. So here are some more.
Some more pics of new moulding mockup. And the door jamb tag.

Is that solvent basecoat you're using? Your booth must be 35 foot long plus!

turp mcspray 07-04-2012 07:14 PM

Re: New life for an old 2wd, farm Blazer
 
Yes, it is solvent based. Water based is pretty new to the area. I haven't tried any yet.
My booth is either 18' or 19' wide x 33 1/2 ft. long. Pretty good guess!
Hey, isn't there a Simpsons character named after you, or are you named after him? LOL!!!

Re: New life for an old 2wd, farm Blazer
 
I don't reckon you'd be wettin your floor down if you used waterbourne, unless you don't mind a 7 hour flash time. Can't buy solvent base here anymore. My booth is 14X24; bigger is better! The Simpsons quit sending me royalties years ago.

Very impressing. If these pictures dont motivate someone, Im not sure what will.

Fantastic, man. What blocks do you prefer? I've been enjoying my Durablocks. I taped a 2x4 to my long block for the bedsides , came out pretty straight. Do you block when wetsanding, and what grit? Much respect for your work, Turp.
