Dear Group,
I have a Bugeye with rusted lower panels and a poorly primered upper
body. The inside of the bonnet has a lot of surface rust.
I have looked for a shop to strip it and have run into many idiots.
I have the car completly stripped and ready to go (central Texas).
I wanted any recommendations on avoiding sand blasting with other
medias. Is there a product I could use to chemically do the same (with
patients and high attention paid to rinsing, etc,?). I have heard the
warnings on ruining a new paint job, but It will sit in primer for some
time... I am at a loss, and do not want the car to get further damaged by
idiots. If there is equipment I could rent and do the job myself, I would
also consider that. I am in a smaller town with only a handfull of people
who will do this type of work, and none seam very consearned with quality.
Please lend me any advice.
I also heard of a tool for removing the spot welds of the old
panels. Are any of you familier with the tools/procedures involved with
removing sills, rocker, trunk floor/ floors? I would like to remove the old
pieces myself if it is possible to do it well. Please Let me know if you
can help.
