Reply to "Taking apart an Atlas O Comet II Coach for interior detailing (4.4.20 update)"

Started some painting last night and came to a realization that the old adage of "a man on a galloping horse wouldn't know the difference" would apply in my case here.

My original intent was to paint the seats one color  (Gunship Gray) and the armrests another (Neutral Gray).  I'm not rushing the project, but to do that would be very labor intensive and viewed through the narrow windows of the Comet II coach, and with seated passengers, no one would notice, even standing still.  If we're talking tables in a dining car or the tables in the Tri-Rail commuter coach, then that's a different story.  FYI , the seats with the dark navy color was just a test on my part.

So I changed my mind midstream and will paint the entire seat assembly the same color (Gunship Gray), and I'll be able to spray paint them, instead of hand painting each set of seats.  The floors will remain painted a different color, in this case, I'm using Dark Tan.
