OK, I have my flares on.
I am fumbling through the clean up body work that goes with that and finding other body work that is needed as I go. Cass Nawrocki's book has already helped. The thing is, this car is one of my (2) 914 DDs In order for me to get clean lines on the body I need to remove the last 3, 4, 5 or 6 paint jobs. I have some 5 Star 5425 X Treme 2K Direct to metal Primer Filler/ Sealer. After I go down to the metal and spray with the sealer mix ratio, can I trust this to drive the car? Even park out side in the moist air, in the rain??? Then paint later, 6 months, 1 year later ?? What can I get away with? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Attached thumbnail(s)
