Thanks Joe! Now to decide if I want to go ahead and paint the body or build the interior. I should paint the body, which will take a few steps to do and work on the interior in between.

Gives the body more drying time that way if you do it first!

Yep! That's what I think I will do! Paint the body in steps and work on the interior inbetween! As soon as I get new air filters for my paintbooth tomorrow.

Well, I must admit that I am a little frightened of this paint. Gravity Colors Solarbeam Yellow. Three stages of paint! Base coat, mid coat and clear. I haven't painted this Mercedes yet, but I will soon.
