Re: My 1965 build thread
I agree on being tricky on a verticle surface, especially in the summer. There are some guys in the shop that use dolphine glaze. I'll try it the next time I need a skim coat. I didn't know there was a big price difference.

Re: My 1965 build thread
I think of it as being a sprayable filler comparable to a skim coat. The last time I bought some it was cheaper than regular epoxy primer and has a high build.

Re: My 1965 build thread
It says it's a primer surfacer and can be top coated.

Re: My 1965 build thread
Find your local bodyshop supply and check with them. I think it requires a 1.8 tip on your gun. It is very thick. I'm not saying it's right, but I reduced it down with reducer to make it spray a little easier. On autobodytoolmart.com it's 61.99. Here is a LINK

Re: My 1965 build thread
Thanks Allan. I tried to buy it here at the paint store and they said it was discontinued.

Re: My 1965 build thread
I think the metal glaze is close to $30 of that sqeeze bottle, the dolphine glaze is like $12.. its in like a bag/pouch and close to the same quantity.

![]() Getting more done. The cab is almost sanded. I have a few little areas that still need to be sanded. If it wasn't for Mothers day I might could have it painted this weekend, at least the orange. Then I will go back and two tone it. I mounted the seat brackets. I glued the floor reinforcements on with 3M 8515 panel bond and bolted it all together so it can set up. When I install the carpet I will remove the seat brackets so hopefully the floor reinforcements will stay in place. ![]() ![]() The water pump and fuel pump also got installed. ![]()

Re: My 1965 build thread
When I grow up and get a 2 car garage of my very own I'm going to be a madman. Frame off restoration will be when I know I've arrived.
I can't stress how much I've learned from this thread that I'll carry with me for life most likely. Can't wait to use it..

No matter how old you are, your always learning something new. Even with all my experience I try to learn something every day.

Re: My 1965 build thread
What kind of pins are you using and how long are you holding the trigger? Do they just fall off or do they come off when your pulling on them?
