here is another update.
i masked the car off to lay down some epoxy. after this is done, i want to add 2 more coats of epoxy to the exterior followed by a few coats of high build just to get it perfect before i lay down the color

[Steves69LS3]

Le mans blue metallic

It's always a nice feeling when you start getting color on a project..

 

[Steves69LS3]

Yes it is chad. Even if its only the interior for now lol

Here is the first coat of epoxy
Second coat i will do tommorrow

Looks good,, should keep it all sealed up!!

Sprayed the back deck rear sides and dash using SPI flat black single stage.

I like the 6:1 ratio the best
Using my sata 4000 rp
2 fluid turns out. Fan at 90%
And 22 psi
I sprayed 2 wet coats with 30 min flash

It layed like glass

The black is so dark it felt like it just swallowed all of the light and i cant get a better pic of the dash even with all 12 shop lights on lol

I pulled the masking off for a better visualization

 

[Steves69LS3]

Layed down the raptor liner. One coat was enough

Update. I have changed color to frost green metallic. It is the same color as the 69 camaro my patents bought back in well, 1969 lol
Everything is SPI besides poly and basecoat
I layed 2 coats of base followed by an orientation coat and 5 coats of UV clear with 45 min flash times. I tell you it layed so slick no runs sags nothing!
