Busy week prepping for paint.
Finally yesterday afternoon, got the shop cleaned and blown out. Then the fun began.

Finished wet sanding all the inside of my panels.

My paint booth

Started blowing some red paint

Low Elco · 03-14-2014, 08:55 AM

WooHoo! Cut in's done! On to the good stuff!

KMC3420 · 03-14-2014, 09:29 AM

Oh, boy, been waiting for those pictures. Hope the nice weather holds out and we can finally call it spring. Looks great Mike.

There you go. Looks fantastic. I took mine for a drive last night. The roads were dry and it was warm. I thought about you and your comment that you were jealous and that feeling won't last forever for you. You will be joining the club soon. It's an amazing feeling. I cant wait for you to experience it.

trkfrk · 03-14-2014, 10:56 AM

Mike, The paint looks great! I love that color. You are moving along.

knomadd · 03-14-2014, 11:04 AM

Love it!!!

Thanks Steve. I have a pair of Kick panel covers with speakers, similar to the LMC ones HERE

sduckworth13 · 03-14-2014, 03:56 PM

Very nice Mike, everything looks awesome.

jeh · 03-14-2014, 10:45 PM

You can't go wrong with red. Glad to see the weather is in your court. Looks good Mike

**scotts62** · 03-15-2014, 03:57 PM

Lookin good Mike, nice job

jlsanborn · 03-16-2014, 09:09 PM

Sniff...sniff...

suspect · 03-19-2014, 08:34 AM

You're right about that evercoat maxim seal sealer. I squeezed a test area on the workbench and it was still just as runny this morning. Glad I didn't fill up my drip rail with it!

**Dieselwrencher** · 03-19-2014, 05:46 PM

Mike, all your hard work is paying off! It looks great. It'll be a ticket getter for sure.
