Removed all canopy related pieces. Deburred all holes in metal parts. Sanded side rails for priming. Covered aluminum tubes with shrink tubing. Used a punch to make holes in shrink tubing where rivets and screws will be located. Also I am trying to decide if I want to paint luggage area now while canopy is off or wait until later. Need to paint side rails and misc. parts. I will have to wait for a better weather day.
