Looks fantastic! I plan to paint mine the same color. I thought my cab was almost ready for paint until I had it sandblasted. Lots of previously unseen pinholes showed up. After getting over my initial disappointment I am back to metal repair.

Taa Daa, Your right Woody, looks like a nice gloss. Ah, the feeling of a plateau reached !
I'll bet you want to reach out and feel that glossy paint.

You do good work.

It'll look even better after you get a few rock chips ...
