Alllllllrighty. Paint Part Deux was a complete success. But, to continue on with the new moniker of the Cursed Cuda, about halfway through the third coat of clear my compressor overheated leaving me without any air. At 100 again today, it was just bound to happen. But like all car guys who have spare carburetors, distributors, and engines laying around, so to was a second compressor!
 That allowed me to finish the clear but not without some peel due to it being a smaller tank. Not anything major, just not as flat as I'd have liked it to be. Nothing the cut and buff won't fix!  Very happy this time around and now she'll harden up as we're off to SCR23 Wednesday!  When I get back out comes the wetsanding disks, buffing compound, and then it'll be time do some reassembly and packing for the next phase: Restorations by SuperSteve!
