Mixed Monday - Part 2:
I also sanded down both aero hump faces on the boot lid, where the paint reacted.



Then I remembered the 'spacer' used to hold the rear view mirror aero screen in place.



This needed a slight trim at each end and the black paint removed.



Before it could be given a coat of etch primer.



I then used some high build primer over the sanded down areas of the bonnet…





Some more 'bald' patches on the sunny side of the boot lid.



Plus both the faces.



Finally, I had also a few bald patches on the body shell.



So they were all given a high build primer 'top up' too.





So I am now just waiting for the paint to fully dry before I can put the covers back on for the night.

To be honest, today was just too hot for the effort required to sand things down, as I've been sweating buckets all day.

In fact, I am now seriously considering painting the car in the dark, when the temperature is just in the high 60s / low 70s.

Until next time, take care, Paul.
