Cherry Flavored Bondo.

This is my journey through the auto body world. As a chick. Late bloomer, but leaving everyone in the dust.

The cursed trailer

That trailer van is finally out of the shop. Long story short, every fuck-up that held a position at this spot worked on that trailer. And when it left it was no better than when it first arrived, just a different color. SO MANY man hours wasted on that 36' dreadful van. What i painted turned out looking good, but dude had to go over it with 3 more coats (??) of metallic epoxy (PPG) and clear (separately for some reason). You could see the striping in the dark. And the two of us spent the entire next day removing the overspray cuz this jack-ass was frustrated w the boss and impatient and lazy. There were a number of small areas scattered that should have been buffed out at least. Fuck man. This guy needs to go. But other than the work he does (or doesn't do) he's cool.

Found a turtle trying to cross the road! So i flipped it back and picked 'im up. Totally ruined his journey and day plans for the next few hours. Shellhead had attitude! Almost bit my dogs nose.

Can't help but feel like God. Destroy the elements in sight with fire and build it back up, stronger then it was with lightning from your hands.
