Well, I've spent the last 4 days rubbing the mini down. Just got in.

10 hours today and yesterday. My arms are about to fall off.

Another hour tomorrow, mask it up and its primer time.

Jeez, I'm tired.

Rubbing down is a killer I am currently doing myn . Although because i have no date for a re-spray yet I am able to stretch it out over a l,onger period of time so its not as bad :D .

Keep up the good work mate, be well worth it in the end. :w00t:

Well. Got there at 9am, stopped until 5pm. It was prepped, masked and just needed to sweep up.

Went back at 7pm, got in about 15 minutes ago. But its in primer. And I can sleep happy now!
