the guy with the talent and lowest over head is the guy that gets the job. Also 1 bay so no other cars to work on
I was a paint refinishing apprentice (back in my living in Vancouver days... many-many moons ago) These pictures bring back a lot of memories. (I consider myself fortunate to have learned from one of the best bodyman/painters in the lower mainland) The painter that you hired is extremely good at his trade! Lookn forward to further progress photo's...

I would guess the end of next month Chris. Most of the work happens on the weekends at this time of the year. Soon as he is in final primer we will dry fit all moldings and emblems. Dash, inside tops of doors and trunk need to be painted. When car goes to paint booth he will paint inner fenders, rad support, heater box etc. while garage is clear.
Do you go that fine (800) with base clear? Seems really fine...I stopped at 400 with my car, but it's single stage paint so I'm guessing it applies thicker than base would...

Wow, that is fine. Not a body guy but have always gone to 600 wet for base clear. Maybe I should be going to 8?
Wont matter how high you go,it wouldn't help.
