[QUOTE="Black Gold 380R, post: 16740785, member: 70025"] Okay Everyone, I'm trying to make more progress on the car towards final assembly time. I'm getting really close to the end. I'm not trying to rush, but I am trying to work a little more often. So, after work this week I have been working on some front end pieces. I'm trying to get them in primer so I can spray base coat and clear coat on them this weekend. Here is a peek at what I'm talking about. Here you can see my headlight bezel. If you look at the side you can see a rough looking texture. That is overspray from when it was sprayed on the car last time and the painter could not get proper coverage. This goes back to a contributing factor on why I just wanted to repaint the whole car. [ATTACH type="full"]1740394[/ATTACH] You can see that same rough texture on the underside of the top corner. [ATTACH type="full"]1740395[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]1740396[/ATTACH] It's a little hard to see, but on the side facing the camera you can see a run on the lip. [ATTACH type="full"]1740397[/ATTACH] Here it is dry sanded by hand with 400 grit and it's ready for primer. [ATTACH type="full"]1740398[/ATTACH] Here you can see the rough texture is sanded out. [ATTACH type="full"]1740399[/ATTACH] Same here. Rough texture sanded out. [ATTACH type="full"]1740400[/ATTACH] Set up on some brake cleaner cans and a stir stick to keep the part suspended. I cannot have it touching anything where it will be painted or the clear will dry between the bezel and holder and cause a problem when I try to pick it up.
