One more wheel well ? 3 part
Got the inner wells out.
1. How do you get that @#$%& undercoat type paint off? Impossible to keep clean. 2. Why even go back with it? 3. While they're out, go back on the engine side with S-gloss black or body color? Thanks for your input. Almost done. TF |

TF the undercoat pertects the underside of the fender from rocks being thrown up and denting the innerfender and rusting out, with your truck being mostly stock it would be in your best interest to paint the topsides of the inner fenders semi gloss black to keep the factory theme going strong,and you could alway redo the under coat by spraying over the top of what already there. Hope this helps!

TF, udercoat is hard to get off by hand, use air and wheel then prime and paint. On underside gloss black, motor side semi- gloss.

Yep...I cleaned mine best I could with wire wheel, then recoated the underside with spray-in bed liner. So far seems to hold and and looks good too.

Palf,
I'll consider the possibility. My kid would just sell it anyway. TF |

not the safest method out there, but kerosene will soften the undercoating up, and you can then use a plastic scraper.
