I tried extending a thread on the originality forum, but not much luck there:
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=152778 Anyone have photos of an original or 100% properly restored 914-6 showing the rear fender wells and bottom side of the rear trunk? It seems like black undercoating is never right as it was just applied by the dealers or ports (or something), and besides it's ugly. So, it seems like the good options for these areas appears to be: 1. metal -> primer -> body color paint 2. metal -> primer -> grey PVC undercoating 3. metal -> primer -> grey PVC undercoating -> body color paint Or ? -Steve |

I did a rotisserie 356 many years ago. I ended up thinning a generic brand of body Shultz with lacquer thinner to get a spray-able match through a Body Shultz gun to the factory look. I wish I could remember what brand I used.
That Wurth gun looks nice! Don't have one.=$ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) |
