Grandpa came over to make sure we didn't screw up spraying the roof tonight. Cale shot some of the first coat of color, but I did the rest. Dad helped critique and correct some flaws in my technique, and the result turned out very good for an amateur in a home garage who hasn't painted in years and without a professional booth.

It will need a cut and buff once it dries.

I like the old trunk lid as a set up spray out panel...
That is a great color too.

First time spraying this Tamco clear, so Dad recommended we test it on something first... Still some wisdom in that old man.

Hey now....I think he is younger than me....
Really nice to have a mentor. Karl has been more than patient with me, trying to teach me to block sand and "see" with my hand...
