Re: Finally - out of paint purgatory!
looks great AND matches the camp chair color, lol.
this is where it gets easy to skip a step, rush to assemble, and end up with a scratch. I'm sure you already know, but, tape the edges and get some help hanging the heavy parts on. gonna be awesome to see it together. |

Re: Finally - out of paint purgatory!
Thanks, it's been a long time coming. Now the real work begins - with lots of care and tape. 😀

Re: Finally - out of paint purgatory!
Jealous. That is the look I wanted and was going to DIY it. I let a painter talk me out of it. Looks great, but tape it good!

I've been painting my '64 matte single stage, now I'm going to put a matte clearcoat to protect it. Yours looks great!

Re: Finally - out of paint purgatory!
Thanks. We used Lesonal Multi Matte (1:1) for this level of satin. Really pops in the sun and has great contrast with the chrome (55 grill, bumper, bezel, etc).
