Wednesday: during 1st break primed wing and mirrors, Attempted to paint the mirrors and my nightmare of single stage came to life, as soon as i put the base coat where there wasnt any primer it wrinkled :( so with the mirrors back to square 1 except this time prime the whole mirror and prep again during tommorow... ON A GOOD NOTE the wing came out gorgeous (wasnt painted single stage anytime in its life) i knew when i 1st started sanding it was single stage but i had hoped it was a PPG or Dupont single stage nope it was ecconos or maccos and screwed me lol.... couldnt do anything after work on the car was scheduled for primer but its raining...http://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x111/jlmaxima1/102_1992.jpghttp://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x111/jlmaxima1/102_1990.jpg
