I usually use about 10 of those cans on a car before paint. I do everything I can find.
I have had it come out other holes and get everywhere, hence, Before paint.
Blankets and tape everywhere while working and all will be well.
Let the fun begin.

Thanks. I probably should have done it before paint, but I managed to get the sealer where I wanted without too much mess.

Some schedule changes means some work plan changes. I will have a chance to drop off the fuel tank for cleaning, so I pulled it from storage.

Are you using the radiator shop in town on N. Main? He is pretty good.

He did my friends 356 tank last year.

We are making a run to Tucson. At least one shop there offers the RENU process. I am also taking some interior parts, including the seats, to talk with some custom upholstery shops.

Here's what my seats looks like now, essentially a stock look. A couple of the side bolsters are a bit lumpy. The bottom cushions are original (I think--could be extra padding on top), but are maybe a bit thick for me--I will need every bit of head room, at least with the top on.

The bottoms are also attached with custom PO bolts.

Hence the nice "bolt work" from the PO. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Another slight detour: I remembered that to mount the engine compartment deflectors I needed to drill holes, something else I forgot before send the car to the paint shop.

Here's the deflector kit from 914 Rubber, and the page from the shop manual with the magic spacing dimension.
