Quoted from cosmokramer:

is that the professional term?

Yes, it is a unit of measurement in Texas. They like everything big, so when they have to describe something small it has to be done as an insult.

Like "Pin Prick".

I've used the color matching at Home Despot and had awful results matching my house paint twice. Any this is for a grey color.

First time I painted my house I brought in a shingle. They scanned and mixed. When painting sections you could see the difference. So I pretty much repainted the house.

Then, a few years later I had kept one of the 5 gallon containers back go get more for some touch up and replaced shingles. I figured they could just use the color mixing numbers off the container. Nope, new system does not go by those colors. So they just scanned the color swatch they put on the top of the can from the last time they mixed it. Did not match when dried.

I hope you have better luck.

Awesome job. Glad I watched this thread go good, bad and back to good.

What grit did you use to sand the bubbles? And did you block sand?

I agree with 2 comments here. Looking good and you have balls. Deciding to do it and risk doing damage is one thing. To document the good and the bad as you go along is a big one also.

Thanks for sharing.

I'm impatient. I wonder is a fine roller would work. A 4" roller is what you use to spread the epoxy to refinish old bathtubs and they come out smooth.
