So...I tried to wetsand a just a wee little clearcoat imperfection but went right through what must have been only one coat of color. So I did the whole damn lip. Clearcoat tomorrow.

Last weeks snow is just a wet spot in front of the garage doors, so I declared winter over, pulled off the car cover and busted my vert out of winter storage. Looked pretty sad hiding in there against the wall, but fired right up and strutted right out into the sun no worse for the hibernation experience. Color Me - Gone!
Good to have it home again

Clearcoat on today. Will give it until Wednesday before wetsanding to shine it up. Learning to be nervous and gentle around the edges. Good distraction on a day off. Hope everyone is well.

Re Color Me Gone. That must be a great ritual.
