Sanding in tight areas
What is the best way to sand in tight areas? Where two panels meet but will be hidden between the cab and front of the box, Should I be worried about this area? Do I need to take it to bare metal?

The best way to sand is to "sand blast her" really the only way you can get in there...

Since I had to replace my front bed panel, I just removed it and was able to get to the back of the cab. (mine is a stepside but might work on yours too) They are just bolted in so you might try that.

My bed is off, I just don't want to take the bed apart. Any suggestions?
You know where panes meet, and bolts, stuff like that, is it ness to blast?
