Its working well as I plug in my iPod to the small portable speakers, put my beanie on and brave the cold in the car port. Because I am sanding by hand, there's no noisy machines to wake the kids or annoy the neighbours and I can sand for 1 hour each night from 8 or 9pm.
My plan to doing 1 panel a week is on track. Last night I was able to sand 90% of the drivers side front guard which has a blue coat. So it has replaced the factory guard as some time in its life. I knew in advance that it wasn't the same guard as flaking black paint in the engine bay had the metallac blue coming through.
In some areas I rub too much and go straight to bare metal. Water and bare metal don't mix in car restoration. So once I stopped wet sanding I wipe the excess water off and then hit the panel with my heat gun to evaporate the moisture.
