Finally to the point of doing some primer and undercoating.
Trying something on the bottom side. Turns out UPOL makes a bedliner material called Raptor that is tintable. So I had it tinted L80E to see about saving a step of Body Schutz and then top coating. Local Autobody supply was $230 per 4 litres with gun and colorant. But considering the cost of Schutz and paint, It might be a better approach While waiting for the primer and Raptor to dry. Finally broke out the front hood. To put this in perspective, I pulled the hood of, looked at it, said I'll deal with it later... Well, its Later.... Finally (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) Just been 10+ years (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) Did the intital sand and take a look at the photo. Fish Eye from Hell... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) Looks like original paint, a tough as nails primer black/grey, then a white paint on top.. Sanded for 20 minutes with 80 grit and a DA sander. Still looks the same. Could I be Imeron? Any Idea on how/why? I'm planning on chemically stripping it, Thought you all would like to have a look.
