    The racing stripes are a nice touch... although in fairness what isn't improved by the addition of racing stripes? Looking really nice!

    First batch of clear coats: Three sets (spaced 20 minutes apart) of 3 quick coats (Vertical, horizontal, vertical).

    Already looking glossy!

    I would say that is pretty excellent photographic evidence of the benefits of clear coating! Looks like a hot rod in the making!

    Today I managed to sand the body with 1200 g. Then sprayed the final set of clear coats - once again, three sets (spaced 20 minutes apart) of 3 quick coats (Vertical, horizontal, vertical). Now to leave it a while before 2000 g sand and the polishing.

    Also added a Cricut cut vinyl logo and name to the headstock.
