Depends on what time I head over to Eric.  I'll call first.

My youngest one didn't sleep Saturday and Sunday night.  The exhaustion finally got her Monday night.  She fell asleep at the kitchen table.  The next day she had a fever and a sore throat.  She's sleeping better now (with the help of some Motrin.)

The color wasn't dry enough.

You mean you don't put on 2 pairs of glasses and use a magnifying glass to inspect your work?

Perfect.  Now all you have to do is give the bike a name and you're ready for the track again.

then it was too dry... ;D

Re-coat sensitivity with enamels has always been a problem.

It will get more expensive the more paint you apply. ;D

At least it will wash off with thinner. ;)

Then just do it and live with it.

Things like this are why I hesitate to paint my own stuff.

I don't have the energy to obsess over it any more. [laugh]

well if i had the time it would have been sent to someone who knows what they are doing. as it is, he can't turn it all around in time for me to be able to leave when I need to. i could have 3 of the 7 pcs i need done.

Crashing at the track two weeks before your trip probably wasn't in the plan....

I managed to get the license plate of the bus that backed over me last night...

It was a personalized plate that read, "GIN".

Ugh....   :P
