    When you can't do it all at once

    Hey everyone. I just wanted to put this out, which is something that has helped me keep track. If you're like me, with 2 kids a 2 and 6 year old, time gets lost and your memory may also. I made this to help me remember what step I'm at when I can only do a little at time. I've tried to remember what side, wheel, window I've done, but I always forget. Keep it simple.

    Laminate this if you can and use a whiteboard marker. Done.

    Hope this helps!

    Post it note.always try to finish a whole panel then stop.I leave tape on corrections where to pickup again the very next day such as a scratch or starting again in the middle of a panel etc.Especially on white rv and white airplanes.

    Leave your post it note in your car,driving around town with tape and post it notes you will get some strange looks.I also have colored magnet squares that I will stick to paint on where to pick up again.

    Re: When you can't do it all at once

    I use Mike's VIF for when i do this sort of thing on mine or the wife's car. Same idea and i like the split photo idea, roswell. In addition to that, i document work performed more specifically in my iPad. For example, "corrected deep scratch on rear passenger quarter with xxx on a yyy pad" etc. I like to keep track of specific additional spot work. I also try to stop at a seam if i can't finish the whole side. In addition to documenting it graphically i may (may) remember what door edge i stopped at.
