Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
It looks good. You can always tell people that's the only (Farmed Out) part of the build. Pardon the pun.

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
mongo,
Looks pretty good from the photos. I am very guilty of my eyes going to every minor flaw in my work first and all too often others never see them. For your sake I hope there is a fix but if there is not you still will have one fine machine at the end of it all.

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
well it appears there may be a fix to the messed up liner issue..heres the reply I got from the liner guy..
(The only way to fix the messed up areas is to strip with aircraft stripper and respray and then blending in lightly over any good areas The Liner will accept the new spray if you wipe with Lacquer thinner just prior to spraying) so it sounds like I may be able to undo my mess after all

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
I hope bedliner round 2 goes better for you. You might try using a shutz gun for the next attempt. That's what came with the Raptor liner I used and the bottle attaches to the gun very securely and sprays out well. Of course in my case I went to apply a 2nd coat too soon and can see impressions from my feet in the liner in my bed. I'm just living with it.

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
thanks Rick...the lizard gun is basically a shutz gun....on the linerextreeme they say do the 2nd coat from outside the bed...theres no flashtime between coats...you just keep spraying til you run out..maybe itll work out

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
finally talked to the liner guy late yesterday...he said grinding the spilled lumpy liner down with a flap disc can be done...
so grind it down thin,,,wipe with lacquer thinner ,, and recoat...and no aircraft stripper on my paint....hopefully it goes better this next time

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
That sounds like a better idea. At least you wont have to worry about residual foreign chemicals.

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
I did a test spot today to see how the flap wheel would work....it eats right thru the lumps...so it should be easy to smooth it down and respray........maybe

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
It still looks 1000 times better than anything I can do. I think you will be fine. But I can tell you this, Any gun the hopper fell off even once would sit next to my trash can until I found a better gun and then one swipe of the hand to that hopper would just make my day.

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
Been wet sanding the parts I have painted...did the hood , front and rear fenders, grill support and bed so far...did those with 1500g then went over that with 2000g...then I used the Norton ice buffing system to buff and polish..I've never used their stuff before, but its really simple...1 compound and 3 buffers..for a driver truck it works very well...heres a few pics...got fenders and hood buffed and polished..the red is looking brighter than I wanted , but I'll have to live with it..
