Long night, but we got three coats of epoxy down. Will have to flip the panels and do the other side tonight. Should be able to start test fitting panels this weekend. Overall, was pretty happy with my initial filler work. Found several spots on the back of the cab that will need more work when blocking. Was exciting to see it back in one color and looking fairly straight. Couldn't go to sleep last night after getting home...maybe it was the paint fumes
