Day 2.

I work up at the crack of dawn to get the detail done before the football games started. I knew I had a long day ahead of me.

After:








It's always important to brush your pad with a stiff brush in between panels to avoid dusting and the pad gumming up.

Roll out:

Unfortunately, day two was rainy. I was lucky to get a break in the clouds to take the pictures.

 

Looks great Don!

More pics of the Softail Or is it a 'glide?

 

Good work! it must of been PITA polishing that hood!

 

wow! awesome before and after pics

 

Thanks!

I had more, but I'm not sure what happened to them. The bike isn't mine, I believe it's a sportster with the biggest engine available. The paint is pretty nice, purple with a gold flake.

Did you get my PM btw?

Thanks! Yes, the hood is always a bunch of fun.

 

Nice job, Don.
