Bonnet – Center Panel (aka Center Section…)

The final step was to spend several hours with the shrinking disc – attempting to smooth the panel and get as much of the stretch out as possible. In the end, it came out OK and should be all the way there on shape with just a little filler – 1/8″ tops here and there, and just some slick sand – NOT the 5/8″ of filler and epoxy it did have in places! The panel is nearly dead smooth, but there is a “ghost image” of the previous dents and creases – it’s actually kind of cool!
