Paint is done...almost
Changed my mind 
Decided to go Blue instead of Black. With the exception of a few spots on the hood, which will be redone, the car and jams are now painted. Haven't seen it in the sun yet which should give it a whole different hue. Your opinions?

I've just always been a "Blue" kinda guy. I like the Electron Blue but wanted something a little darker and different

Foam pad for buffing wheel = $=10 (for 2 pads)
3M hand glaze = $20
