I love those floor mats! I bet you can see the finish line in sight, has to be a good feeling.

How does that wax hold up during the summer? Will it start dripping again

Who does that level of detail along the bottom of the door? Seriously, are they employing ants with cameras at car shows now?

I could care less what an ant sees, or the car show clueless for that matter.
I do care however about protecting all the hard work I’ve done to eliminate the rust.
I didn’t just go through 3 years of painstaking paint and bodywork just to let it all go to hell
again. The cavity wax in the bottoms of the doors will prolong their lifespan.

Did you mask it right at the pinstripe? Or remove the pinstripe, mask centered under it, then re-pinstripe after the clear was down?

I masked it right at the lower pinstripe for the white dust-in, then unmasked it back to the top of the door for the clearcoat application.
Good question!

Absolutely Christian. Every little detail I finish addressing at this point just feels better and better. Not too long now until it’s to the point where I’ll be satisfied with it.

Another great question, and one that I had myself after doing the driver’s door. I am pleased to report however, that once it sets up, it doesn’t start dripping again. Not even in the full heat of summer.

Hahaha, all good brother!
I actually found your post to be quite amusing. I have quite a cynical and sarcastic side, and sometimes it comes through more than others. I guess my sarcasm/cynicism filter needs changing as it’s not working very well today...

Satisfied? What is that? I don't know that word.

Aboot time you noticed that eh. Seriously, I use the British version of Colour, Neighbour etc. I don't spell trye like that, use the normal way, tire. We are a unique blend being a British Commonwealth mixed with influence from the USA. Cricket for example fizzled out, unlike some other Countries and Baseball became more popular because of American influence.
