No. There are times i've tried that then the next thing I do is snatch up that napkin to use to wipe a brush and stuff goes flying. That is why i have a somewhat dark wood floor, a broom and a good light....

I don't think Steve had a seperate thread. It was in some updates he posted. The last I heard from him was it was really close to getting prier aplied.

Very cool. All those decals need is a little clearcoat and they'll be fine. :whistle:

Lyle, this is definitely going better than the previous one. Nice work so far. Keep it going man!

Bruce, I miss your posts here too. They are always informative, supportive and uplifting. I hope you reduced appearances mean the job is going well.
