I just painted the interior - what is she thinking?
She picked the interior color and thinks it's great!
Special thanks to Bill Duffy.

Looks really good! Nice match to the seats. Don't know what she's thinking but let her pick the exterior color(s) too 
Give her some ownership and she will be far more willing to fly in it.

nice
Steve, your plane looks nice. I love the seats. There is nothing like leather - hot in the summer, cold in the winter! The fabric looks nice and comfortable. Good choice. Wish I was that far along!

I can't take full credit
I can't take full credit. I purchased the RV nearby from a older gentleman who had a medical issue develop. I'm hoping to finish it soon enough and go flying together. 80% him and 20% me. Oh, and the seats are vinyl.

So how did you paint it?? I'm near that point and don't know where to go from there.
It does look great!

Imron 3.5 ST
scuff it well with scotchbrite, clean with alcohol, mask, dupont variprime 615, and Imron 3.5 ST satin, no clear coat
dupont recommends sealer after variprime, I didn't do it. spray thin coats. Harbor Freight HVLP gun had some splatter and added some texture. I'm OK with that. Should help keep reflection down with the light color.
