Default Cut and polish....

"Peek-a-Blue goes in for a professional "cut and polish" tomorrow. I am really excited to see the end result. Paint correction and final polish of the new flames should net some very nice results. I thought a total paint correction was the way to go. Should look just beautiful sitting on the St. Pete pier in a few weeks.

Oh, by the way, who's going to the Pier show and what time should I really plan on arriving to get a nice pier location? Would really enjoy seeing some of the old crew there.

Ken, did you check with the painter to make sure the paint has cured enough? I always thought that you had to give new paint a few months to cure adequately before applying polish and sealant.

Hey, Sure did. Paint has actually been curing for about 3 months already. Painter says now is fine as a matter of fact he's doing the work.

I will be at the Pier show. I keep forgetting there is no day of show registration so I missed sending mine in AGAIN this year So the I will be a spectator while the Z16 sits in the parking lot. But there are some nice cars there, have a few cold beverages by the water and some lunch makes for a nice afternoon. If I see peek a blue I will stop and say

Please do. For a while we had a pretty well collected group of buds. I'd love to see some of that come back again. Please do drop by.
