This session I made some real progress, finally getting some decent paint on the cowls, I could turn my attention to other matters: cleaning up the glove box, horn cover and foot-board and knocking the leg-shield back into shape.

Frustrated by how meticulous you need to be with the spray method, I have spent the last few days researching online how to paint a car (given there’s more conversation on the subject than painting a scoot.)

This session I moved forward with my first experiment with painting. This proved more difficult than I had anticipated even though I knew to expect as much.

With the filling and sanding complete, three minor things (I hoped) remained to address the rusty cowls: Finish up minor filler work on some remaining blemishes, clean the cowls down thoroughly and prime them.
