Morning!
Late start. Brekkie in 10 minutes and i still am in my jammies.
6 degrees below freezing, we need frost in the ground before snow. More welding today. Gave a good one!
 
Welcome to the weekend!! This is your morning wakeup call.
You're booked for a 2 day stay and a reminder that checkout time is Monday at 8AM, so get your *** out of bed and get to work.
For you retired guys all we ask is take your meds., lift the toilet lid and aim straight.
Have a good day all. This is a recording. "beep"

MCACN is a fun show. Lot's of people, Lots to see, Lots of walking and standing around. Something I can't do much of any more.
 
Lookin' at the weather radar and what we got left fo rain, if they woulda took the scarifiers to the track before rain started rain would just about match quantity from the water truck :lol:
 
Did you notice the difference in hue on the drivers door paint. It was probably painted horizontally laying on stands. The metallic will lay down different than vertical surfaces. @Frodee
 
I never got why they do parts separately. I would paint the jams etc, assemble it and spray like a high school kid on Prom night!

True that. Especially lighter colors with metallic. Way too easy to get a different shade.

Hard to tell from the picture but yea it looks that way. I always paint a metalic or pearl in the same direction mostly if the car was painted apart and not all at once.

I had my buddies paint my Ranchero at their shop. I think it a Corvette color, dark dark green and gold metallic. In the dark it looked black, which was fine by me. Anyway, they were just about done with it and their spray gun left a great big drip in the middle of the tailgate :eek:
"We'll fix that after the paint gets set" "Nah, just leave it. It adds character." :thumbsup::lol:

Well like me I'm not set up to paint a complete car so I have no choice but do one part at a time.

When I worked at the Buick Dealer we had a Riviera with GM's "Firethorn" metallic. After sending it to the body shop for some touch up, they couldn't match it even with blending. Long story short, we got the factory rep involved and he got Fisher Body reps and finally Dupont themselves. They finally figured out what the issue was. Looking through a magnifier, you could clearly see the metallic was standing on end when it dried. There was a half dozen cars on the paint line that they didn't turn the "Electrostatic" machine off and all the metallic was standing on end. It was a beautiful paint job but impossible to duplicate or match. GM paid to repaint the whole thing. :rofl: :rofl:
