Default Re: Time to paint

I just went through this sane thing. except I didn't remove the body. This car was an old restoration. I removed all the fenders, every thing forward of the fire wall, running boards but not the doors. I don't like sand blasting. I went with a process called dustless blasting. They use water and a very fin glass grit and they came to me. The panels were cooler then the out side temp. because of the water. There is no heat build up, so no warping. Also if you have not taken an A apart, take as Many pictures as you can. You will forget how things go back together. After several month, you will not remember how the welting went in and how the windshield goes back together. Don't through any thing away. You can use the old welting as a pattern. As I said, I just went through this, and if I can be of any help. Don't hesitate calling.
