Yeah that was my thought but I didn't want to insult the guy.

I took a quick 45 minutes or so to perform an engine detail and snapped a coupla shots in the failing afternoon light. Forgive the photo quality.

Went to the grocery store, got gas, went for a follow up exam with my eye doctor, later washed the Z and used Dr. Colorchip on a pinhead sized spot on the front of the hood. I'm quite impressed how well Dr. Colorchip works. I really have to look to find the repaired spot.

I've had some Dr. Colorchip now for several months and have yet to try it out. How easy was the experience?

Beautiful day, got the Z out of the garage got some gas, ran some errands, washed the girl and did a spirit run.

Went exploring off Lime Creek. Weather was crappy and so were the other drivers.
One day I'll have a proper camera as well.

Shake the color bottle, put on the rubber glove, Put a dot of paint next to the spot to be repaired and wipe the paint over the spot with your glove, let it dry a couple of minutes and use the sealact.
Absolutely the best spot repair I've done. I got a bit of paint on the rubber on the underpart of the hood front. The sealact took it off. Also wash the brush with a spot of sealact to get the paint off of it.

Pulled the dash, finally. Got all that ducting out of the way, got the blower out and realized I'm going to have to pull the crash bar to get anything else meaningful out... sigh.

Also started paring down the harnesses. Back hatch now only has the brake light wiring. Will begin splitting the other longitudinal harnesses tomorrow probably.
