[QUOTE="enginerd, post: 424057, member: 21309"] Varnishing the seat tops and dash have been a very slow process with all the rain we've been getting; recommended dry times aren't so accurate when it's this cold and wet. I doubled them and still ran into soft varnish when I went to sand the first time and have since been waiting a full 24-hours between coats, but it's getting close. I got the dash completely varnished and have it installed along with all the electrical components, wiring, and pulley steering system. [img]https://i.imgur.com/DfKv8cO.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/NO8OsMs.jpg[/img] One side of the bench tops is finished and I've got 2 coats on the remaining side, but still have 3-4 more coats to go.
