How is your primer working? I've never worked with the high-fill stuff before and am curious as to how well it works.

sand everything w/ 180, put a nice coat of hi fill on there and wet sand it in a couple hours- ready to paint. This stuff flows nice and doesnt shrink up much. Anything heavier than 180 and when it does shrink you could have sand lines showing after paint.

I'm going to have a hell of a time. My car had LOTS of bondo on it, and it looks like he roughed it up with a fork or something. I may have to do a second coat of primer and/or paint. I'm new to all of this, so time will tell. Are you and I in some sort of race that neither of us knows about? We both seem to be at about the same point at all times...that and were both in Ohio.


Nice work man...looking good.

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) DID get my swaybar 90% installed today though, would have been 100% but they forgot to ship me the slide on ends that connect the links to the bar!

well, i started at 6 last nite and worked til 3am wed. morning and here is what we have so far. When i went to take a pic of the finished cleared job, the camera died so im going back over today to snap some more pics. All looks good except the ds door i need to go over the bottom to fix some spot you can see through the paint- silver doesnt cover the best- and wet sand to buff..
