Jun 25, 2014 Update

Been busy building a couple of workbenches in the back of the garage where I will be priming & painting. 3′ deep x 14″ wide… Also bought some light fixtures off of CraigsList I will be installing soon. Also will be adding piping to the air compressor. I also moved the blog from one hosting provider to another, so let me know if problems!

Jun 15, 2014 Update – Priming

I had my trunk lid all ready to prime, but realized that having it right next to the air compressor might not be the wisest thing to do.  After much reflection and discussion on the forums, I will be re-organizing the back of the garage behind the Camaro so I can do my priming there.  That will give me 25+ feet of distance between me and the air compressor.  Might even put a smaller fan in front of the air compressor to help keep the fumes away.  This is where I would have been painting…

$43 later and I can open & close my hood on the S-10 again – had to replace the hood latch. Been trying to get the hood open and then I went to try it again and it opened. I left it open and located a replacement latch at AutoZone so I got my neighbor to pick it up for me. So back to the trunk lid tomorrow!
