Ok.. day terminated early due to rain shower (only the 1106th time this has happened). Finished with securing the skins, washed down and prepped whole trailer and shot urethane sealer. After two hour dry time, we started to shoot the white base coat, and I got the entire curbside done, along with the two ginormous propane tanks, the propane tank holder and the metal entry door, which for painting, was not installed. A sudden lightning/thunderstorm boiled up and we did our Nascar pit crew inmitation with securing the cover and getting supplies picked up.

Sharpe SGF for primers and sealers, Sharpe T1 Titanium 1.0 mm nozzle for topcoats and clears, and Finex detail gun for fine work and airbrush type finish. Spraying sealer in the blistering heat Sealer applied. roof skins are not secured because I've polished the Jrail and awning rail and will wait until clear coat is finished to install the roof rails.

You are really moving right along! I wish I had popped for spraying over rolling....I have a pretty confined space and was worried about complaints from neighbors and about overspray.

Ok.. Just shot the turquoise this morning, and after a couple of hours for it to cure, will peel off the masking paper and tape and shoot the clear coat. The colors look even better in real life than they did when compating paint chips and Photoshop!

Wow if I tried to do that in my front yard the EPA would be here in a heart beat and arrest me, convict me of crimes against humanity and then have me shot in front of a firing squad. Well that's California for you.
