Slow progress, but almost there. The grey paint is PPG DPLF sprayed for a pinhole check. I'll wet sand it later to break the gloss, then spray another light coat followed by K36, wet on wet. The inside was prepped and sprayed up through K36 before bonding the plexiglass; lot easier to do inner surfaces while you can still get at the surfaces from the top. It will get one more shot of K36 before spraying color.
The exterior got two squeegee coats of straight epoxy over the glass and micro before spraying anything. The epoxy skim coat was block sanded lightly with 220 to remove the squeegee marks. I found a grand total of 4 pinholes when I sprayed the DPLF. 'Nuff said; I'm sold on the method. I got so disgusted with trying to fill pinholes by spraying K36 on raw glass that I sanded all the K off a set of wheelpants and started over using the epoxy coats.
