Sanding, sanding, cleaning, sanding, prepping, sanding, some more, spot priming, resand, clean, clean, and clean the shop some more.

I think I got it finally.

Colour is being applied. I have to redo one inner fender as I had a thin spot on the top side. Too bad it wasn’t the underside, I wouldn’t have cared as it’s getting rubber coated. I went to respray the fender to cover the thin spot and failed to check the orientation of my gun’s spray pattern. I moved the gun sideways, and the spray was horizontal. I have a huge run. Now I have to sand it out and reshoot that piece. I am also almost out of black. My math was VERY close for the amount of black I needed and that hiccup should use it all up.

Next up, move pieces around, sand out top inner fender, respray, and move to shed. Mask the cab for interior spray, spray little green doodads, then spray cab interior, then do the exterior after curing.

Exciting times! Whoop whoop!
