Thanks Carlos. Almost didn't spot it but it was laying just right under the light and caught my attention.

I got the base color on this morning. I still need to do some wet sanding here and there to remove a couple of dust specks and smooth some areas out. I've got her in the drying booth now for the next couple of days.
