Course mine has a few "character" dings that I missed and decided to leave in ... cause you know, I don't want it TOO perfect it wouldn't fit my personality
Shame your not a neighbor so I could hang out and watch.

Glad I could be of help to you. I'm really glad I picked up on the fact that you were originally going to leave out the sealer step. That one may have cost you. You are right that using epoxy primer has some rules to it's use that are different than other primers but I think it's benefits are unarguably worth it.
Anyway, your results look great and am really happy for you it turned out the way you wanted.
