First the dash is cleaned, then wax + grease remover applied. After that it is painted with black satin paint for plastic and different size white oil based paint markers are used for the letters. It takes quite awhile to do. :)

Today was a wild day but about all that is left is getting a battery and putting the sheet metal back on. Decals should be here Tues or Wed of next week. :thumb

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
I can't see the forest for the trees.
