[QUOTE="mygoggie, post: 999308, member: 18916"] Never believe the weatherman ... Almost sounds like "Never pay the ferryman" ... bring it on Chris. I got up early and started cleaning the garage, vacuumed the floor, wiped all the parts to be sprayed, assembled the spray gun, got everything in place on the paint mixing bench and by 10h00 still no wind. Good, let me get cracking and painting. Two hours later, all the parts were done. The back splash plate will get an epoxy coating that is hard wearing so it was not be painted with the MS primer.

We had to move it outside to start the fine sand blasting process. Here Carl is busy with the small gun blasting the gunk and other dark creepy things from the hidden cracks and crannies. [IMG]https://i.postimg.cc/3xNwLZGw/IMG-20200626-134829.jpg[/IMG] I will continue with the process tomorrow as by this time the wind did start blowing at gale force and the wind chill index temperature dropped to less than 10?C.
