I have done searched both here and on the Bird Board without finding much (except on the Bird they are pretty much all cult members of some guy named Tom in NJ who restores tops for a business). I want to do mine myself. 914 targa tops are simpler than 911.
Anyone have a suggestion on paint brand and color and additive to get the pebble finish correct? |

QUOTE(ConeDodger @ Apr 12 2011, 12:06 PM)  Thanks Mikes... ('cause I know you guys run in packs). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif) Problem is we rarely agree. So if a bunch of Mike's show up you'll likely get a ton of conflicting crap. . . . probably better off asking a Mark! And on Perry's remark on the old shoe polish trick. Sometimes Scotchbrite and some pre-clean is all you need. BUT if your roof has had shoe polish you must clean that down to the fibreglass itself, re-prime (epoxy works well) and start from scratch. There is so much oil in shoe polish that any residue left over will null and void all your efforts. |
