Upper firewall and windshield strip

Deburred, primed and riveted together the upper firewall and wind shield strip. I used bucked rivets because I wanted it totally flush. The main difference between flush bucked rivets and flush pulled rivets is that flush bucked rivets are flush.

Figured out on odd thing. I have previously been testing primers and how well they withstand different liquids, such as acetone and silicone remover etc. Seems like only epoxy primer is able to do this. On the firewall I cut my finger and spilled some blood. Easy match for acetone or silicone remover I thought, but neither of them had any effect whatsoever on dried blood. Who would have thought ?
