I'm not totally happy with it, it'* about 95% good. 99.9% of people wont even notice what I see. In spring when I can take the car off the road for a longer time then a day or so I'll clean it up. It'* going to take a little bit of wet sanding. I want it to be spring so I can bring the Vette out.

Great job Dan. Did the hit and run driver end up being the truck at your work?

yes it was. But he'* really dragging his feet on paying me. I just left a voice mail saying thsi will be done this weekend. he has until Monday morning. I'll tell my ins company it was a hit and run, and this is who did it. Then they can deal with him, and he gets a hit and run on his ins record.

How much paint are we talking about? If you bring the paint, hardener, reducer, and clear. If you need primer, get the filler, sandable primer.
