Re: '72 GMC long/fleet in Ottawa area

December things slowed down so set up the garage for painting the bedsides. Winter temperatures sub zero just added to the challenge but managed to make it happen. Was disappointed with the result with lots of dirt flecks in paint caused by poor air supply even with a double filter setup at the gun. Culprit ended up being a cheap air dryer that had corroded inside .... should have just gone straight hose from filter/ separator at receiver. Live and learn I guess. Contemplated sanding it out and doing over ... for about 20 minutes and a beer or two and that thought went away quickly. Sanded and buffed and it improved quite a bit. Far from perfect but it will just have to do.
