Made me laugh..

After finishing wire wheeling the gas tank outside, I sprayed with degreaser, scrubbed , rinsed, and applied metal prep..

While waiting for it to dry I decided to go back to work on the brake lines.
So I'm laying under the car, attaching the SS brake line from the bulk head to the axle..
As I am laying there..I look up and see that my elbow had left a nice dusty elbow print on the bulk head (painted 2-3 weeks ago).

Of course it wiped right off...but then I just started laughing..
This was the FIRST time I had gotten the CAR dirty..and not vice-versa!

That is a pretty good indication that you've "turned the corner" and are headed home.
