Jeff-- actually, it is a before picture, but I really don't get much on me anyway (experience does count) Yeah, your paint shop was blowing smoke at ya.... One doesn't need thinner and you don't need to spray it if you don't want too, either. We have sprayed it with a simple solvent gun (also known as a suction gun-- about $8 at Harbor Freight) and my friend uses his primer gun- neither one of us thin it (and cheap lacquer thinner works, too, POR 15 thinner isn't needed) And 2 quarts would have been more than enuff. The 55 inside roof took less than a pint.... And I don't really think their Blackote is really needed either, the Compact tongue (POR 15-no topcoat)has been exposed to Eastern WA sun for a year now and still looks good. Sooooo
anyway good luck on your project keep up the good work later Larry

Hey Larry
I failed to mention I did apply a couple coats of Tremclad Primer as well before top coat was applied (thats 5 coats of
paint 2 coats primer for the frame and 9 coats combined on the problem area /2 coats of stone guard). Should last quit a while. And as the pic shows I stone guarded (primed and painted as well) the problem area on the
Trillium Frames. $135.60 for two quarts of Por-15 here in Canada. Don't ya hate when shops blow smoke? I do. Next time Larry I'll save up a bit before hand and purchase a
paint brush. Just had the time and wanted to getter done. And allow for my other upgrades.
Thanks Again Jeff
