this is also posted in the paint n body section......
ok my D**n steering coloumn has made me look at other aspects as to (where ever she drops there is where she shall be buried j/k) but im looking for a cheap way to strip paint, remove rust, and smooth out what i remove and coat it where it wont rust again. ive got deep key marks in the fender, got dings in the bed where ive been drunk and swung at someone n missed n hit my truck. the door where the handle is pops in and out. im looking to strip the paint ,smooth the body, put a coat of something that will resist rust. the next phase after this will be the frame while most of the body is off, then custom wireing/brake lines/fuel lines/ n whatever else is down there. But my main question is whats gona be the bang for my buck for stripping paint and rust resistant coating? Thanks crackajacka

sand her down (if using something electric, watch you don't overheat the panel and warp it) wirebrush any rust off / sandblast any pitting, clean the truck, put some sort of a rust converter on to get rid of the rest of the rust, use a metal wash to get rid of everything that is on the metal, then prime it with a self etching epoxy primer. If you've got any pitting, you can fill it with a small amount of filler, then put some sandable primer over the whole thing, block till its smooth, then shoot it with more epoxy to seal it. Should be good to last until you paint it
