Hi everyone.
Been working on the underside filler work.
 After all that sanding went on to the out side filler work. It's all done. :cooldancing: Just got done priming today, still have a coat to put on the underside.
I think it's time to take it off the rotisserie and start setting up the body panels.

Hi everyone
After hours of sanding  :faint:it was time to get to the fun stuff! :bananasmi
Just the underside is complete but it makes moving on to the outside a little easier.
This is the first one that I have used the base mixed with clear to make a single stage. With all the pearl that is in this color it worked very well and I'll be doing this with all colors that have pearl or metallic. It made it much easier to get in the small cramped areas.
Here are some pictures with and with out flash.
After several coats of the mix I sprayed two coats of straight clear on it, I think it came out well.
