I had the painter at my body shop (where I wrenched) do my '72 Int'l

the removable top and it looked really sharp. That was some tough
paint. Another friend _gave_ it to me. He said he had sold the
plane, after deciding against painting it before he sold it, so the
Imron was still in his garage, unmixed. I was happy.


The stuff was just great as a product. Shot well, easy, and was
indestructable. A tad toxic, but what the hell - we were all
indesctructable at that time as well - right?


And we all survived without the Nanny State to help us, didn't we?
