So my day was mostly spent on the phone or at my desk.
Late afternoon, the weather was still warm and dry.
So I quickly painted the front and rears. Amazingly it dried in the time it took to make a coffee and drink it.

Sally popped in around 5.30 and helped me lay the stripes……..
Anyone figure what I am doing ??
Yes, you guessed right.
And there is a formula for getting it right.
Ratios.
I used the 1120mm or 42” top width to calculate in order to get the Stars n Stripes ratio as close as possible to perfect.
Then opened the last of my red Hammerite smooth.
Very tempted to do a distressed flag, but thats more effort than what I felt like.
Used the last bit of paint to paint over the damage on my welding trolley.
Managing to pour the last of the paint over myself, my one foot and the driveway.
Man I cursed.
I went out earlier to check the paint and it is touch dry.
So tomorrow I will pull the tape off.
Then I just need the 50 stars to complete the job.
Coffee time, then I wont sleep.
