Here is the only pic I took yesterday while sanding the bus.
Today I got an early start, ran to home depot for a few supplies and harbor freight for a heat gun and drill. The wind wasn't as bad as I thought though there were a couple of really good gusts. Hung my trash bag on the windshield wipers so it wouldn't blow away.
Took a heat gun and scraper to the signs and reflectors.
Hung it on the handle for the back.
No more reflectors or school bus signs. Need to sand the between and above the windows, the door side, the rear and all the spots reflector tape was, and the chair rails and bumpers. All that will be done after I clean up the left over glue with mineral spirits. I left the small circle reflectors on for now. They may or may not come off and get fresh ones added.
She's coming along.
Have an overnight work thing tonight along with a storm coming in. Monday looks good to finish sanding and get a few things done to it. I'm off to New Jersey on Tuesday to pick up a brand new MCI motorcoach my boss has decided to letter with my name under the driver window. First time he's done anything like this in 26 years. I'll post a pic or two once I'm back. Now I just need the weather to warm up so I can lay some primer. Busy season starts week after next.
