Thanks for the pics , keep them coming. Hard to do but I bet you can't wait to see it finished. Are you doing a number of clear coats afterwards? It is going to look awesome. Aren't you glad you didn't rush it for Carlisle? It will be one heck of a showpiece for next year at Carlisle though.

You bet I am glad I did not rush. Patience is one thing that you need doing this type of work. I will keep you posted as I go along...Cheers...Collin
