Nearing the end....

[Boomyal]

...of my Gulfstream structural, interior, mechanical and mechanical cosmetic project. It has been a lot of time and work. I have learned and honed many skills which I hope to use in other areas and ventures (do I hear BeachCraft?)

Here is the last hurrah! In order of pictures; Zinc Chromate, Catalyzed Epoxy Primer and Catalyzed Acrylic enamel. Need I mention? You can spend a fortune on paints and supplies.

Boomyal,

Nice looking stuff! I quit adding up the cost of the supplies, it seemed to cost less that way

Peace.

Great job Boomyal. Yep, just thank the EPA for the high price of paint.

My progress on my project is not going so well. Its mainly finding the time. I quit doing side jobs so that I would have time. Now my friends just come over to shoot the bull and watch me work. Of course I don't get nothing done that way. I hate it when people watch me work.

Well at least you must get lots of brewskis that way SS.d

Thanks all, for your comments. Just remember you cannot mask too much when you paint. Even with HVLP, the overspray will find the tiniest opening. I'm glad that I took a lot of the paper off as soon as I was done 'cause I had to do some fast wiping, with laquer thinner, on places I would rather not have.

Ya know, I came to the same conclusion. I used to save all the receipts and add then up at the end. Not any more. I guess knowing that things will add up beyond reason, you just have to calculate in your satisfaction level for doin the project.
