I'll come down and help u wrap the "burrito"...i have a lil experience with a heat gun (not a hair dryer for sure). Just be sure to order extra wrap...I've worked with films from glass, so, yeah.

You are kicking butt now! I sat on mine for 6 months. Please post lots of detail on the wrap because I may do that on my car during the shakedown period. I realize the bodywork has to be pretty good even for a wrap.

Scott, thanks ... she's getting there! Pics to follow of course, been getting the shell as straight as I can before wrapping, waiting on my SPI epoxy to arrive!

When you're back at it keep us in the loop, gotta keep on keeping on ...

What to do while waiting for epoxy order? Well pick a task a .

Got the body work sanded down to 320, I'll see how good it is when I spray black epoxy ... have a feeling there will be more filler work.



First coat of Lizard Skin ...



So I put the first coat of Lizard Skin on the fenders, I'll let er dry and then stand the fender up and get a different angle for second coat.

Thanks for looking ...

Charlie, the spec sheet calls 13.71 lbs/gallon, thinking I have three gallons applied to the car now, of course, that is wet weight ... don't know what the dried weight is thou.

Been busy with this and that ... waiting on my SPI epoxy I started body working the trunk and the firewall (apita) and I found out the firewall closeout panel I welded on was warped and I couldn't get it straight so I cut it out and did a smaller patch.

The trunk wasn't so bad but my body work still needs refining as can be seen in the SPI black epoxy ...

So here's some pics for those that like visual aids ...



Second time around mo better ...

Filling the tray here .... doing something different!

Getting some black w the new gun ... very little overspray!

That'll do pig!

In between coats just cap the cup and clean the nozzle ... pretty cool!


And I started on the hood mods, found out I needed flexible urethane foam between the skin and the supports to replicate AMD's work so I got that today and then my 3M Accuspray gun came in and I just had to spray ... what I time saver in cleanup and the pps cups are just cool.

Thanks for looking ...
