Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
You've been busy. Even though you're going to re-clear that dash looks smoooooth.

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
Ok Who left the north door open it was 70 Saturday this morning it was 29
spent the in the shopr repainting the dash I wet sanded it with 600 grit to get it down to the base coat to repaint it . it would lift i try to use a primer to keep it from lifting no go . so i just stripped it back down to bare metal reprimed and reshot the the base. and did the colum parts and big block mounts didn't get to shoot the clear i need one more good coat of base . Dad thought i was crazy for shooting when it was 31 out side and wind blowing around 20 to 30 miles an hour .. but the shop was 75 in side ![]() ![]() |
