    Looks great. Funny how getting a little primer or paint on makes it seem like you have taken a giant leap forward in the project.

    Gonna be a nice rod.

    Good progress Jack. If you've done the job in the past without an HVLP you probably remember sweeping up a lot more primer particles from the floor.

    One comment on doing the top coat in your home system, especially if you pound on the clear to give plenty to cut and rub. I'd be leary of solvent pop with that little air movement and possible lower heat. Booth rental may be more costly and time consuming, but you'll probably enjoy the fininshed product more.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
