Ran short on paint. Need another 1/2 - 1 oz, which means I gotta buy another $30 rattle can. The worst part is it's only 1 time use so it's all or nothing. Oh well. I'm happy with it overall!

There's a PPG dealer about a mile from me.
Thanks! Hard to say, as I did some work on the top of the core support as well. But from welding to painting I'd say 6 hours.
Beats the hell outta building the panels from scratch. Congratulations on getting it done w such good results.
The slogan for this project is hindsight in motion. It was so much easier and dare I say enjoyable this time around. Would definitely do it again. And thanks for the kudos!

You hit the red button on the table, which injects the hardener into the paint. You then have 12 hours to use it.
Painters, I have a question. There are a couple of places that I am not happy with and want to sand a little more before I spray the second coat. Can I wet sand the areas with 1000 grit before re-spraying, or is there another method that you'd suggest?
The fact that it is basically a hardened acrylic paint means that you should be able to do that. You should be able to. I'd ck w/ the paint supplier to be sure of that though first, ......hate for it to wrinkle or some s hit because you were supposed to let it cure for some time first.
Well i tried to roll it outside yesterday to bake in the sun... but the yard crew showed up next door 10 mins after. But by the time I get around to sanding, it will have been 36 hours since spraying. I will definitely call them anyway and see what they say.

Thoughts?
Now that is pretty cool. I say do it. I don't know if it will flow better, but for your purposes, I think it will work well.
