How close to the Ford color is this Don? It looks like mine did before we did all the sanding.




Both of my pictures are before sanding.
You never have time to do it right the first time but you always have time to do it again.

At this time I really like the color too.

Looks nice. Is it a high metallic? Or just a really nice shade of gray.
Either way it looks good and I hope you get it home soon.

I really don't know how much metallic it has in it. This color was suggested by some other people and I liked the idea so off we went.  :shock:
I have seen Dodge trucks and Jeeps in this color and I liked it.
Now with any luck this thing will have color next week!  :D

It does look like a "high metallic" to me. A light-ish color with lots of aluminum flakes and maybe some pearl. Looks like it was sprayed well, too. Congratulations on getting to this stage, it must be a thrill! 8)

It is high metallic I just got back from moving the car to the building with the booth. And yes I am excited!

It's getting there Don. And looking good.

Are they assembling it after paint or is it going back to your place in pieces?

How many more days in the booth before it comes out? Are you going to let it sit for a few weeks before buffing?

Looking at this was a pleasant way to start the day. I hope you don't take the painter to Mc Donalds. :)
