Oh and that thing is to high off the ground for my short far butt to reach the center of the roof. For sure.

Who's self leveling seam sealer is that on the drip rails?

I used a fair amount of SEM self leveling seam sealer throughout the car, however how long the drip rails I used 3M fast’n firm. I find it is much easier to shape as well as come back and reshape even after it had mostly cured (with lacquer thinner) It took about three coats to get the shape I was looking for as it does have a tendency to shrink as cures.
Thanks

The plan is to paint the roof and the cowl as one part because this car will be getting a vinyl top I will have a seam along the trim holes this will allow us to put some scaffolding up on either side of the car so my short butt can reach ;-)

So the entire car is finally painted just need to 800g block sand the quarter panels and shoot two more coats of clear as I have done with all the panels. Then I get to move into the next stage, color sanding and polishing all of the panels, fun stuff “Not!”

Looks great! What is 'color sanding' and why is this done after the clear coats?

Wet sanding starting at 1500 and work up to 3000 then compounding & buffing
