Thanks man. Yes, definitely updates. The adventure continues on a my new thread: 450V. I'm building an aluminum body roadster on a C5 chassis. Inspired by 1957 Maserati 450S.
We're just finishing moving into the new shop. Beast is done and ready for an Aero test day. Harris Hill is too short so we're looking for a better track. COTA is $$$$ but we may end up doing that. I miss Texas World Speedway. It was the perfect track.
Re-sanded. Let's just call this the base coat. I need to wait 24h more for all the VOCs to outgas, THEN I can repaint it. At 5AM. I feel like I'm fabricating a bloody surf board.
Well damn. It's 105F in Austin. So hot apparently that the paint flash dried in the air before it hit the splitter and fell off. I'll have to re-sand tonight and paint tomorrow at Zero Dark Thirty. Or convince Rob. He's a morning creature, up at 4AM.
Most resins/adhesives will kick off in larger volumes. Split it between a few cups and you'll avoid any issue.
At my old job, we wouldn't mix cups larger than 100g (not including hardener) because they tended to cook off. Sometimes you'd end up with a dozen cups for larger layups.
