The metallic particles are really big. I have a local guy who's done paint matching for me before- he does it entirely by eye and experience. I've yet to see him miss. I'm hoping I hear from Konrad that it's powder- that would make it just that much easier.

Cool stuff Chris.

I can see why you were getting a chubby just over the drive reservoir - that does look awesome.
Keep the pics coming!

OK - need to get it done by June??? Why by June?
Is there a plan?? Or a need to get it done by then??
Are you planning on Charlie's race/run to Bimini??
I've been thinking about it myself in my boat. Not sure I can get everything together in time.
If you need a man in the boat to make the run, I volunteer for navigator/ballast.

No way would I run a newly-rigged boat to Bimini- especially one with a small tank on it like this one.

June is just when it's nice enough to go boating around here. I'm a fair-weather boater. I'd rather just not go if it's cool or rainy.

If i had the time and the $$, I'd buy that tin Cougar 46 at LCM and stick a set of 1200's in it. That would be the ticket for that run. It would be neat to come in first in an old dinosaur like that.
