[BusNit]

Since I have the headlights out, I realized the peeling clear coat looks like doggy poop. I watched some YouTube videos and for some reason, I feel like a pro or is it too much knowledge and video confidence says I can fix this? Anyway, I bought some 2k clear coat which is a spray can that has two part mix. You press the bottom valve down of the can using its cap and it releases an internal hardener. No biggie, I can handle this. YouTube university says get some grey 3m scotch pads and start removing the clear. Sounds good in theory but seems I really can't feather down the remaining edge. On top of that, the base coat is all fongoliated from the sun and sanding. I will see if the paint store can mix up some base in the metallic tan for me. I went from backyard mechanic to backyard body shop man. I'm not looking for perfection, just something that won't look like a jalopy. Mirrors and front nose are worst offenders. We do not have the money to repaint this thing so this is the best option to keep it looking halfway decent. Looks like I'll need more than two cans of the clear too...
