Next came the really fun bit, the lacquer.
We applied three coats of lacquer with thirty minute intervals to generate a really deep shine. At the end of the today it was looking really sweet. Just left to dry now at 30 degrees over the weekend to ensure everything has fully hardened.
Assuming everything sets and no one touches or drops it in-between, next week I can start the rebuild and develop the new bike as planned.
