Hi folks - had to share the first Red Piece of our Resto-Mod Project :D - Pretty excited to see something Red instead of rusted and oily.

Note - the pinkish area you see is a reflection from the flash. Next coat in 34 hours.

The Iron Guard paint states "apply 2nd coat before 30 minutes or after 36 hours". Figured I'd follow the directions for once in my life! :big smile:
