took advantage of a nice bay area afternoon and shot the clear on the quarter panels...
(Maybe i should have jumped on a bus to Reno .... not a single bug or other foreign object landed in the clear!).
The reason i am painting things in pieces and with the doors wide open is because my body can't tolerate the atmosphere...
So far .... this works for me....
I chose the PPG water base for this reason, but the jobber could not mix this Light Ivory in any other single stage paint any way...
Ironically ... If I had shot, this car with single stage I would have been done 6 months ago ....

while i was waiting for paint to dry....
It was pointed out by a 912 Registry Member from across the pond that the Restoration Design front slam panel for the 1968 had an irregular shape
Because the car is already painted i decided to cut a piece off of my original 1968 Targa latch support ang graft it in....

Final clear coats for front bumper and gas tank door...
Special Note: I have accepted the reality that hanging the clear out all the way will be way too risky due to fly's/debris etc.
I will color sand a little more and buff a little more and still achieve my desired finish
