So I bought this neat-looking chunk of resin and thought I'd see what I could do with it.

I've never done any work along these lines so there's quite a bit of trial and error documented.

Soooooooo much sanding. Sweet baby Jebus was there a lot of sanding. And then some bondo.

And then MORE sanding. I went up to 800 grit.

Followed by a couple light coats of primer.

This is the part where my Fairy Gaz-mother came to my aid. He told me how to properly paint the bucket. And then I still effed it up.

I really effed it up, lol.

Right now I am at the point where I've wet sanded it down again and will be ready to try and lay the paint down again. I'll get some more progress photos soon.

Nice work. I understand the nerve breaking part of painting a bucket I was so nervous painting my Mando bucket, especially with 4 diffrent colors on it.
