Re: one piece at a time

Took my bed apart so I can strip the paint and get to the inside of the panel to knock out the dents out. Striped the hood again due to the piss poor job the guy did I had working on it ,just pilled on the bondo trying to make the round parts flat I guess. Ran out of paint so I just have half of it etch primerd.

Re: one piece at a time

Hung my doors back on so I don't have to worry about dropping them.built a fixture to hold the hood to make it easier to work on and don't have to worry about ruining my work that is already done. Then finished my etch primer job.

Re: one piece at a time

It is thicker than it looks more like one inch. Your right it takes way more effort to putty it than knock it out. filler is great in moderation like alcohol.

Re: one piece at a time

Man I wish it was laser strait ,it just looks that way in primer.it has some waves and the wheel well caught up on something and was pushed forward, had to pull it back still needs more work. also the end cap has some pretty good dents. Man I wish I could get a bigger air compressor I have Ben virtually broke I have been spending most of my money on the truck or tools for work. Other than that life's grate can't complain just keep on keeping on.
