  2. Thanks Kurt & Dann! I've made some progress! It got even more dust during the recoat. So i've sanded the dust out & decided to use micromesh here's a pic before

  15. Fantastic Build! remember seeing these on the road when I was really little!
  16. Great paint work, did you pull some paint around the tail light?
  17. This 2nd pic is of the 2nd coat after a repair for dust. It's a little darker
  18. Well you kind of get to fin out! I'm posting 2 pics, the first is 1 dust coat, then 1 medium coat of Cobalt Blue. The Alclad II instructions recommend 1 do 1 light coat wait 10 mins 7 than 2 medium coats. It's a lacquer, but unlike any i've used before. The problem with this paint, it that it has been designed to be translucent - so the silver base shines through. Well that's great, but it makes it really difficult to patch up issues. I had dust land in one spot, lightly sanded it out, then when touching up, I ended up with a light spot (where the sanding was) then dark areas outside of it. I also ended up with 2 splodges - same issue trying to sand out and patch up. I'll probably give it one more coat. This paint also attracts dust. Once washed and air dried, it's like a magnet for dust. never seen anything like that before!
  19. High quality build you got there!
  20. Fantastic build, and the effect on the interior looks excellent
