Wires are back in, nice and clean



Paint came out pretty good. Here is what I used.
- The primer (on the left) , I bought at home depot, nothing fancy
- The paint itself (in the middle) I bought at the automotive group and it is a spray can paint matching the OEM color, asphalt grey, in my case. It match extremely closely. Very handy.
- The final coat (on the right) is really giving a nice and strong clear coat. for a racecar, more than enough. I highly recommend it because even my overspray can barely be seen.
- Sanding, look that the 3M sand paper they sell on rolls like that one, they have rubber/elastic backing and they are really perfect to sand roll bars, you can grab one side on each hand and simply pull it like you would do on a towel.

My last 2 advise, tape and plastic protect the hell out of everything, because spraying roll cage is not fun, small spaces and having to spray front and back (right in your face...)



Next weekend will be at homestead, so I am putting it all back together, we'll see ...
