Paint and Rotisserie opinions, take it off the Rot, or leave it on. Options

[VaccaRabite]

So, last night I was looking at my tub as it sat on the rotisserie. The bottom is done. I need to to some final sanding to the cabin and trunks, and then I can start masking spraying the epoxy primer.

I was thinking at first to take the car off the rotisserie first, and then paint it on jackstands. Now I am not too sure.

On one hand, it iwll be way easier to paint the trunks, cabin and gas compartment with the car on the rotisserie. Sanding the build primre will also be easier on the rotesserie. On the other hand, the car is far more likely to be scratched removing the car from the Rot, and masking the underside might be easier with it on jackstands.

So, opinions are wanted. On or Off? Epoxy primer and build primer on, and color off? Choices choices....

And with that, I must leave you to boldly walk into a dreary multi-hour meeting. Lets just hope it gets cut a bit short.

The painter is very friendly and he called me over to his shop around noon today (Saturday) to make sure the color is right, It's Conda green. I can now say it will be visible from quite a distance ! It's a very bright color.

Cheers.

So funny! This is the same color I am going mine!

That is so cool. I am glad I found the thread. That IS a neat color. His thread was the first car I had seen on a rotisserie. I realized it would be great for painting the trunks etc. What surprised me most was that he delivered the car to the painter on the rotisserie. Every picture I have since seen of others painting their cars have been on stands or on the cars wheels.
