Brief Description:  Sec 45 Door gap fix Session #9

I think there is light at the end of the tunnel, Today I final sanded by hand the gap/seam between the doors and the cabin cover, I sanded it to aprox 1/32 - 3/ 64" gap, and then went back and 'broke' the edge using some 150 grit to put a slightly rounded corner. This is primarily to help keep the paint chips to a minimum, as the tighter radius make them more suceptible to chipping. after the sanding the 'gap' seemed a little larger because of the radiused edges. I hope that there's enough of a gap to allow for primer and paint, it's hard to know just based on eyeballing. It's also very hard to take off too much material when i've gone to such an effort to make this a more attractive package. then popped the doors off, I put a fiberglass patch on the Left door where I had trimmed off too much material when mounting the door latch. I put the lights on it and it 'cured relatively fast. Last thing done tonight was to mix up some SuperFil and spread it between the flox build-up edge on the bottom of the dors and the upper surfacr of the door panels so othat when sanded it will yield a smoother transition and not show any 'waves' in the paint. Tomorrow, I should be able to get the exterior doors final sanded and spray on several coats of Smooth Prime. I'm anxious to see how they look after being primed and sanded. Then on to priming and sanding the cabin cover. then I can finally get this 'dust bucket' cleaned up!!!!
