day 6.......

Refreshed from the weekend I entered the car park with some trepidation - I really wasn't sure what state we were going to find the mural in. But I was pleasantly surprised, most of the safety tape etc was still in place and we only found dirty footprints, no actual damage thank goodness.

Today we couldn't actually do much because we are waiting on a delivery of paint. So I primed the remaining steps and landing and we also second coated some of the yellow. With the yellow we actually use a white grit (safety grip) instead of the black, this is because it does not show up as much in the paint which is much thinner than the other colours. The grit is also much finer and once in the paint seems to stick together more in clumps.
My only concern at this time is about painting the areas in front of the lifts, there is still only one lift working and I do not want to inconvientant the public anymore. One suggestion is to paint the areas when the lifts close at 6pm - I just hope with that that the paint will be dry enough by the morning not to ruin people's shoes.
