Re: Fresh paint....don't touch,
Looks great!!! Did you smooth the fiberglass before painting or is it still textured?

Re: Fresh paint....don't touch,
I found the top already smoothed on the outter. I had the interior retextured to hide some of the seams. I am very happy with the outcome.

When I bought the top it was 95% upolistered (spelling). With the top being unfinished and 5-6 years of sitting upside down. Rather than have it reupolistered I removed the fabric and wood and brought it back to it's original appearance.

Not to much to brag on in the engine compartment. I'll do a final post when it's finished.

Re: Fresh paint....don't touch,
Do you work on the top or did you take it somewhere? Were there any cracks? I've been thinking of smoothing my top and having someone fix the cracks in my hatch.
