What did you do to your drop outs to get them looking like that? Awesome build btw

Thanks!
It was a bit of a process. Long story short, I carefully sanded off all the paint back to the first weld (so I could hide the new paint seam later), taped off the drop out slots and repainted them. Primer, wet sanding, clear coat, polishing. Etc
The frame had never been built when I bought it, so when I first installed the wheels the old paint cracked and flaked right off. It's not perfect, but better than it was for sure.
