Any of you that have painted cars know there is something called the "hero coat". It is the 3rd coat of high solid clear that maybe you need it maybe you don't.But I always get caught up in the moment and I am definitely a more is better kinda guy.If there is clear left in the can,we are gonna do the hero coat...

OK- hero coat on the car and it was very rewarding.now there is more than enough clear for sanding and buffing.Out the door Sunday night at 11pm for the 45 minute drive home.BUT the car looks good and the body appears to be reasonably straight.

Started putting trim on today after I finished buffing. The A/M wheelwell moldings needed a lot of massaging to fit the car but they are on there and look OK.
