Getting close to having all the pieces painted.
Here's the door after buffing.
The hood and decklid still need cut and buff.
The last of the pieces finally in primer.

Looks fantastic. How do you like the ********** Euro 2020 clear?
What was the verdict on the Sata RP? 1968 Coronet R/T

I'm liking the EuroClear.....but I did notice some spots yesterday that weren't there after I finished buffing a week ago. I had the same issue with the universal on dad's car. There was one spot that looked kind of like a clear worm (hang with me here, it's hard to explain). I can wetsand until it's gone, buff and it looks great. A week later you can see it again. It can only be seen in certain light so I don't know if I'll ever be able to get a pic to show it up or not. I've really been paying attention to how well I stir the clear. I'll mix with the paint stick for 30 secs. switching rotation every 5 seconds or so. If I ever get a pic I'll post here and on ********** forums as well.
As far as the SATA, I didn't care for it at all. It kicked up way too much overspray. I tried one coat with it and then switched back to the Iwata for the other coats. I know that's not giving it a fair shake by only doing one coat. I've got several small jobs coming up so I might try again. I don't know if this SATA RP 2 is totally different than the SATA 3000 RP's or not. I would really like to know. |

Getting closer. I'm finally starting to get my cut and buff procedure fine tuned.

My part is finished! I was wanting to get a good pic of the car in the sun, but our weather here (KY) is horrible right now. I'm hoping to see this car leave Monday. Still yet I'll take a pic of it outside.
