I sprayed epoxy sealer and base yesterday and then sprayed the clear today.
All went pretty well except for a couple of sags on the hood with 1 little run. I sprayed the clear just a little too heavy on one of the 4 coats.
I believe I will be able to sand them out OK. I think I'll try spreading a thin coat of glazing putty over and around the sag and then sand. When the putty is sanded it off so is the sag and run. I haven't done this before but I heard it works very well.
Other updates:
I stopped by the upholstery shop this week and they are going to get my convertible top ordered. His preferred brand is Robbins and has been buying from them for many years. I project it will be next summer before I'm ready to take the car down there but better to order stuff early with all the supply chain issues going on. He hasn't gotten the seats done yet but it sounded like he would get to those in a month or two.
I also ordered door panels, convertible top boot, well liner and a few other items from Legendary. They project it will be August before I will get the panels! I didn't expect quite that long of lead time.
