The painter was having some trouble getting in the tight areas inside the car so I decided to grab the gun and shoot some paint myself! I sprayed an additional TWO pints of paint that day (in addition to what he had already sprayed), all in the interior. Here are the results:











Once I finished, we bagged the interior to get it ready for the paint booth (exterior paint has a glossier finish than interior):

Today (5/1), I arrived at the bodyshop just after they started to lay paint down in the booth.

Here is some NH676-M (also known as Moonrock)

15 minutes after putting it down, clear coat begins.

Here are the painters mixing the clear/hardener/reducer/fisheye additive cocktail:

















And.....ACTION!











The Results:



















A note: All of these pics are taken with a camera phone and do the color NO justice, Moonrock is simply stunning to look at.

Going over there tomorrow to hang the doors and bolt on the hood/trunk lid. Either tomorrow or Thursday she comes home and they start work on the hardtop and the rear finish panel (if I ever find one).
