Today was an 8:00 start and then just 3 hours (had to head to the musical theater performance).
Straight forward session. Painted the frame (first upside down, let dry, then right side up). Then clear coated the already painted component parts.
Decided to paint the bridge white to follow the overall color scheme (white on top, red on the bottom).
Overnight, had realized that the reason I probably couldn't get the steering head off was because with the axle still bolted down, it was torquing the forks. Loosened the axle nut and presto - steering slid right off!
So was then able to prime and paint the steering head, as well as swapping the springs over to the black ones.
Left everything to dry overnight.
