After applying the yellow I had to sand a bit. So I put 2 coats of clear before the stickers.
I did not put a lock nut on the one side of the rear hub and it did tighten because of the coaster brake which made it hard to pedal.
After putting a lock nut on that side it now spins freely. It is a sweet ride.
The paint is still soft, sitting a bit in my sunroom will help harden it some but I have never found spray paint to be particularly hard.
I also changed the 49t chainring to a 48t and the 16t cog to an18t


I now have a Acorn small front bag on it.
