Now we are getting somewhere! The white went on first, but somewhere along the line something went amiss. The color white I had bought wasn’t even close to the color white I wanted. It was more of an “antique white” I was looking for a “bright hurts your eyes in the sun light... WHITE”. Well, we wet sanded the ugly white down, and then we got the correct white layed down. What a difference! We then laid out the stripes covering all of the white that would eventually show through. What a GIANT PAIN is it was to lay out and tape off the stripes! They turned out awesome, but it was a huge pain to get them all straight and to look right.
