The original Trail Boss.
Midschoolfool:
Round one.
Few drips, and overspray is terrible as always. Nothing that can't be easily fixed, though. I will wet sand it out tomorrow then put down the second coat.
Midschoolfool:
So the weather is lovely, and the coat I put down was deliberately thin. As such a few hours later I could work on it. Took off the over spray with a brillo and some P1200, then removed the drips with some P1000.
Thankfully that might be enough for there only to be one more round of wet blue filth. And then I can start laying clear.
Midschoolfool:
OK so one more small thing done. The top cap on the fork I got is yet another one of those really annoying stupid ideas manus have to put their logo on it. A logo that will never EVER end up straight and will look stupid.
I found the S&M one I got for the S&M build I did last year. I couldn't use it because Demolitions is bigger. So I stripped it. Now note, I did not strip it all because there was no point. It is just more to oxidise and you don't see it.
Better.
Midschoolfool:
OK. So after wanking the smurfs last night twice, and then wanking them again today the frame is in clear. First coat obs, so one more to go hopefully but if not two.
Shineh. Really, really shineh.
I then measured the frame up for PPF. These are not all of them, as the film is only a certain width.
And cut.
Midschoolfool:
Well after all of that work it doesn't need any more. Nice.
It's like glass.
The black 3M should come today, but not until around 7pm. Hermes are on a weirdo. Still, it needs to harden properly before I go anywhere near it. Did the bars yesterday.
The 4 bolts are Ti left over from the Pork.
Last group photo before it all ends up on the bike.
