A Perfect Day to Paint!

It is warm outside, T-shirt weather and little humidity, a rarity in Florida. A perfect day to paint!

Last night I tried to get the camaro ready to shoot some color on it, but it wasn't meant to be. The tail light panel had broken and had to be repaired, and there is still some body work to finish.

I did manage to get the glue bomb engine apart and soaking in Purple Power to remove the paint and some of the chrome that was beyond repair. I also re-soaked the hood, the primer and putty had to be removed as something had reacted and the putty was cracked and ruined. I thought it was the cold, but I think it may have been the new putty I tried to use. I will experiment with it a bit before I say what kind and warn someone not to use a perfectly good product.

I will get some pictures of the progress up soon and post them today as soon as I can.

I also picked out the tires and wheels for the car and will show them along with some progress shots and pictures of the 54 Chevy to compare with how it used to look before I lowered it.
