This was a restoration job - the number on the right pillar was still there - albeit barely visible - so I had to trace it before painting it in order to transfer the design on to the left pillar. Just read that back to myself and I'm not sure if it makes sense. Oh well. The whole thing was like painting on sandpaper, which was less than a laugh, but hey, I was out in the sun, and lord knows I need some tan time.
