This morning I was able to shoot the orange on the car. I had already put the creme brûlée color on the top and rockers.

Yesterday I started masking the car for paint color separation as you can see below.

I got all the plastic film hung on the frame and started on the masking of the car.

When I finished I moved the car back into the bay. Looks like I will have ample room to spray without dragging hoses over the car(and really pissing me off) GGGGG

While preparing to set up the spray booth frame, I looked up and got all kind of crazy ideas. They passed and I went back to work.

I started assembling the frame once I cleared the bay out. The doors to the car are under dust blankets on their roll around stand in the back.

I continued adding on to the frame unit lit was all assembled.

 

Some touch up sanding, second wash was followed by a blow dry all accomplished during the peak eclipse period today.

Also got a start on setting up the spray area in the shop.

Rainy days and the need to replace the entry door to the shop set me back a few days but "I'm Baack"! This is the first wash and smoothness test. Only found two or three small places that need a little touch up sanding.

I was also able to sand the steering wheel that I have mounted in a painting fixture that turns while spraying.

Sanding and second wash tomorrow if there is enough sunlight with the eclipse and all.
