getting closer... a lot of the blocking got done today. Its amazing how much you can miss during the process once the high build was shot last weekend a couple of small dings showed up, We got those taken care of, Jeremy and I spent about three hours blocking the inside of the care. I kept asking myself why I went the standard route at that point. It was a ton of extra work but I think in the end it will be amazing.

Here are a couple of dings we missed prior to high build.

There is only a little left to block tomorrow, as you can see I blocked through the primer in a few spots no worries though it should see a little booth time tomorrow and receive the final coat of primer, and then its back to blocking again.

Geez Louise I think my right arm is about to fall off, not to mention my fingertips are raw. Spent most of the morning blocking and finger banging all the little spots that most people will never see, I did fix 2 dents in the bottom of the heater channels that probably was caused by jacking the car up with a floor jack. Jeremy sprayed the final coat of primer. Now all that is left is to wet sand with 600 and paint.

Very nice, can't wait to see this with some color on it. I know you have put in some very detailed work, much respect.
