Gorgeous work!

Some of the issues here relate exactly to problems I'm having.

A few questions, if I may:

1) You sand the primer w 1200 (12000?) grit, and then apply Novus 1/2/3 -- does the Novus hurt paint adhesion afterward? (I get "orange peel" constantly, and I'm always looking for ways of eliminating it without destroying the coat of paint -- either better application, or a mild sanding regimen...)

2) How did you repair the paint bleed around the hood stripes? Was that all "sand it back and start from scratch"?

3) What tape let the paint bleed under, and what tape did you switch to?

Thank ye kindly--
