Okay gene!

 Now what shade of red is that? It looks like something I might want to paint a 57 Vette!

I can't believe the improvement in spray paint!I stopped using them about 25 years ago because I was sick of the heavy orange peel as well as the runs sags and drips I expirencd.Now I have great confidence in using them for automotive body shells.

Due to the recent cold snap,I have had to let the paint cure longer than would be the case in the Summer.I cleaned and futured the windshield /back glass unit and will paint the black window trim .

The color looks GREAT Gene. Looks like you're in for a little wet sanding & polish but it should come out fine.
