Howdy folks,
I just talked to a friend of mine in Reading, PA who seemed like he would be very resonable on the price of a paint job depending on how bad the car is body wise. He gave me a ballpark of $1000-3000 for a car that is a 6-10 body wise. He of course cautions that it will be on a case by case basis as he will not do half assed work. He is a car nut like us and I would trust him with my car...actually he is repairing my bumper and painting it now. His name is Aaron and you can reach him at: cdeviantdesigns@yahoo.com I have his cell if yall want it, but I dont want to post it. Just your new homey from the left coast trying to keep the rust at bay! Oh, I am not proffiting at all for my endorcement or advertizing. Just looking out.

To tell you the truth I havent used a needle scaller before. I generally use abrasive blasting it cleans the metal entirely leaving a good base to work with and weld on it is messy though. Harbor frieght also carries small hand held blasters that are perfect for home workers and profesinals alike theyre great to clean up small areas. Its at this link http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/disp...temnumber=45998
Get a bag of coal slag (black beauty) its not as health endangering as sand and block the area with plastic or i even hold the tip between my thumb and palm (wear a heavy leather glove) and cup over the area im blasting to keep the mess less. As for the scaler though for sheet metal I would think it would be far too agresive and would streatch the metal so far before you would have the metal properly clean. Thats alot of force when those needles are moveing as fast as they move , theyre generally for heavier steel. |
