It probably would have made more since to do it the other way around - but when you do have a Jerry, you tend to use a Jerry! So, in all the great body work and final finish, we still had not addressed the door jams, or anything under the bonnet - paint wise. Fortunately, the striping gave us some good stopping points, and Jerry taught us a new trick with rolling tape, and gun/trigger technique, for blending. We have door finishers, and intend to use them, but, we painted the that area anyway. The finishers tend to go bad, and body color is a popular alternative. So, a few more hours under the mask, and a bit more clear to clean out of the garage, but the jams, and some of the under bonnet work is done. I still need to do the actual back of the bonnet - a project for another day.
