1968 Porsche 911L

After 3 years of restoration we finally shot the car on Saturday, August 27th. Was lucky enough to have access to a pro booth via a family friend. Had the booth till 2pm. Wow. That was tough! By the time we got the car off the trailer, masked and fixed issues here and there it was 12pm. Painting took less than 1/2 hour. Bake cycle to 30min and then back on the trailer home. Ran into issue with sweat from gloves between coats. Nightmare. It was 92deg out when we shot and no booth air cooling. Overall the job was very high quality, just need to figure out how to fix the small problems here and there.

Glasurit 22-line single stage acrylic urethane. Color: Helfenbein. I believe that translates to "light ivory" in english.
