Silver

Today I got up early and headed for work.
The first thing I did was to move all the parts into the spray booth.
 These are the last parts. I moved them form the garage to the spray booth.
 And here You see why i made all these stands.
All the parts are suspended to facilitate access while painting.
 Here the fenders are suspende on its frame.
 For all the small parts there was a stand available in the spraybooth.
 An overlook at everything.
 And then the masking begins. All the holes in the interior are covered to minimize overspray.
 The hole where the gastank sits is covered with paper as is the trunk.
 And here the whole car is fully masked.
 For some parts I had to make a stand because there are no holes from which to suspend them on the stand.
 The black paint on the doors are cover with masking tape.
And then I had to clean every part with a gray scotch pad.to remove and loosen up all remaining dust. Next all the parts are then washed with a degreaser.
 Then the inner wheel wells are sprayed with a gray anti gravel.

 Also the inside of the fenders got a coat of anti gravel.
Even the complete underside of the car is covered with anti gravel.
And then we started to paint.
 First the base coat was applied. On the parts,
 On the car front,
 more parts
 to back.
 And then the varnish was sprayed on the prts
 The whole car
 The hood and the doors
And the fenders.
Now the sun is gone down and we let the car to cure.
Job well done.
