This is what the first color looks like and the second with just the sealer that I'm waiting for to dry.

It's a pretty tough job to get the arcs right when travelling a long distance with them and having them broken up by doors, seams, etc...
First Rate!!!

Here it is almost finished, have to let it cure so a can sand out a couple of runs and use rubbing compound to get rid of the feather edges. I took lots of masking tape and paper, my friend had me use Scotch 233+ tape and it worked fantastic, I have nice clean edges.

Artic Fox 27-5L. Not huge, but built like a tank and small enough for most state and national parks.

Nice rig, we've looked at their 35ft unit and if something happened to our present unit we would strongly consider a AF.
