Finally, I'm OMward bound. A little scraping & sanding & it will be ready to paint.

Today I applied a second coat of Zpoxy. I love working with this stuff. It is non critical to mix and has a long working time (at least at the temp in my basement). It also sands very easily without clogging the sandpaper much. I'm very pleased with the result. Can hardly wait to start spraying.

And here's the neck. It only takes one coat to fill the neck if you apply the epoxy with a finger - use a nitril glove.

15 coats of nitro and I'm happy with the result. I'll hang it up for three weeks to cure. I'll have it done in time for Christmas.
