Painting the Shell

Today was the best way to paint the inner frame and shell, so I got to it. It was cloudy most of the day, but the temperature and humidity was right. 

I used one can of Gloss Black Rustoleum to do 2 coats on the shell, and one on the frame. I allowed the instructions on the can for prep, painting, dry times, and more.





So there's some wind and a tree nearby, which was shedding plant material on my shell. Nothing stuck, but I was tired of brushing it off and stuff. So I took it to the garage and will let it dry and set/cure with some better shelter. 

I may add another coat soon, but the weather started to get unpredictable today (cloudy and sunny, super sunny, then windy...which is a bigger problem), so I'm going to stop for now.
