 Had a quick look at the Pop this evening. The cellulose seems to sink or shrink quite a lot as it dries -the run I found yesterday's still there, but has smoothed out quite a bit. Hopefully some careful sanding will sort it out. The interior doesn't feel too bad at all, (the LED lights were at home, recharging), but I could feel a few powdery dry patches on the bulkhead, mainly at the bottom behind the engine, where it's awkward to spray. So I'll give them a light sanding tomorrow then a few good heavy coats over the whole cab. I know it's taken about a month to get this far, but it's been a few hours here & there in the evenings & lots & lots of prep' work. I'm quite enjoying just experimenting with it & seeing how good a finish I can get with aerosol cans. He did say a month ?  ..Andy my advice is don't use aerosol cans..they have a lip along the bottom edge, far better to borrow your mums rolling pin..wrap the Wet n Dry around it very tightly and off you go.. |

My god Andy, probably too late now, but some 2 pack isocyanate and an airfed mask would have done this in a day...
And it doesn't shrink - as much anyway.
When are you going to go out into the country to cut some saplings to beat yourself with - is it called flagelating or something?
Sorry, forgive me, hic...

A mate who rents the garage opposite mine texted me this evening, asking what BayChimp & I were up to behind closed garage doors this afternoon. I suspect "rubbing down" may have only added to his suspicions  |

Yeah, that's what worries me!
Top coat on the cab interior done. As usual, one dirty big run, above the driver's door, half the length of the door. At least, they seem to rub out reasonably easily. Just have to fight the urge to mess with it until it's dry. Top coat in the cab exterior maybe tomorrow, clear lacquer by the end of the week. Done ...I hope.
