Welcome back. At this point if there isn't actual water falling, you gotta consider it a good time to paint.
Doesn't matter how much water is trapped in the air.

And if it's a foggy morning with low cloud ceiling with NW wind from the paper mill, it smells like one too.

Ran out of paint

To the store......

Back home on the pond. A tad bit on the humid side today to be painting but it needs to be done. Also............... I really need to mow my lawn after being gone for several days

Various parts at various stages of paint. Several more to go

Hmm... sprayed the lawn? Definitely time for a mow.

Today's weather has not been paint friendly. Going to have to set up the fans and plastic sheeting in the garage for night time escapades this weekend

I live in the desert, and we needed rain desperately, so I’m gonna wait until the very last possible minute to paint.

Normally I’m not superstitious at all, except when it comes to machines.

I figure if there’s any chance it all to tempt the rain gods, this would be it.

We had great weather on this side of the river.

We've had on and off rain for weeks. Typical as hurricane season ramps up this time every year

We had on and off throughout the day and then one huge front that hung on far too long

The paint looks good but the upside down horizon looks trippy in this picture!

Crazy retention pond reflection

Just think, @JA331 and @GTHOtrod have to build upside down like that all the time!!!!

And back to work. Frame and bars have about 6 coats at this point

 

[Captain Awesome]

That shows the frame fade pretty well

 

[Captain Awesome]

Unfortunately the clear on the black parts is no bueno

Worked fine elsewhere

 

[Captain Awesome]

Break for lunch and to regroup

Scrambled egg chorizo Mexican street corn rice burrito

 

[Captain Awesome]

100% my fault for not spraying test coupons like I usually do. Live and learn. I did however spray a small test area on the bar ends and the underside of the BB. Frame, zero issues from what I could see. Bars, just fine on the test area

Sprayed clear on the bars..................10 minutes later

All the same brands and types of paint. No melding of lacquer and enamel or anything stupid

So mad. Threw that clear in the trash and started going through my other spray cans

I'm at the point where bed liner is looking promising
