More work on the R&J dome. Sanding. Sanding. Sanding...

After unpacking all the R2 items from the weekend gathering, it was back to work on the dome.

Here's the stack of stuff....work cloths, sandpaper (800, 1000 and 2000) and some Mother's Aluminum polish.


Here's my progress after the 800 grit....



...1000 grit....



...2000 grit...


...then after thoroughly drying the dome, I dabbed on some Mother's Polish and rubbed. And rubbed. And rubbed.....and alas! Some shine!



So I'm finally hitting a shiney point I've been trying to get at for a while. More polishing tomorrow!
