I discovered many moons ago that the majority of stop-light ass whoopings can be carried out with the A/C on.

Back sweat in 100F weather is sexy

In the garage, avoiding overspray.

Finally going to get her all in epoxy pirmer today. From there it should go a little quicker hopefully. From the info I'm going off of, the bofyfiller I'm using works better over the epoxy as opposed to bare metal.. which is good because I have some bodyworking tools ordered that are still not here yet.

I started laying the first coat and got absolutely swarmed with love bugs. You can see them barely in the pic but when I stoppedthere were thousands of them. Gonna wait until this afternoon to finish up. Let the wind lay a little and maybe the bugs will thin out a bit.. good thing it's only primer.. ha. The paint will be shot in my buddy's shop. Bug free there.

Holy crap. I can see a lot of bugs. Other than that, it looks much better (almost) in one color!

That's one spray gun cup of primer, and not even a full coat. It's really thin still. The last few coats I'm not going to reduce as much so I'll have a little more to block down.

Oh no, they are all wayyy off. This is me getting some epoxy on the car so I can fill dents. The panels still need to be aligned.

A little tip that will be good when spraying 2k primer and color, wrap the air hose around your back so it's away from the car. Another thing, sorry for all the unsolicited advice, you don't really need to block sand the epoxy (etch) primer. Just rough it up a little with a scotch pad before applying bondo and filler primer.

Do you have an air regulator on your gun? I see the filter but that is all, it could be there but just not visible.

Loving the progress man! Keep up the good father/son work
