as small as those holes are you just mig them up. no need to back them or weld them from the back side. just use .030 wire

Color choice makes no difference. A straight body is just that. color will not hide bad body work. The myth of painting a car white because of bad body work is just not true. The same goes for Black. the body work is the foundation of your paint. If not done right it will show.

Here is a little tip I would be happy to share. This is what we do at my shop. When using a k2 primer mix it as a sealer every time. Why you ask Well it lays down much nicer. The real reason is die back. as the product is much thinner it will shrink up a lot quicker than heavy coats. leaving no...

Jax Wax hands down. This is the product we send with our customers to us after the car is finished.

Looking much better. With practice the learning curve will come. Just like anything you can't learn much by sitting on the side line. Keep at it.

Rod. But welding panels is the way to go. A bit of advice when welding tack weld around the panel moving your next weld to the opposite side of the panel. Keep and air line and blow gun close. Weld a spot and blow it til cool to touch. This will eleminate warping the panel. Most people will...

paint the engine compartment the the color you choose for the top of the fender. If you are looking for something a little different to set off the engine compartment clear the engine bay with a clear mixed to an eggshell finish.Use this same finish on the underside of the hood.

Normal? Not at all. I do this for a living and I can tell you it's in no way normal. If one of my customers saw there car in this state it would not go over so well. The car should of had epoxy primer right after the car was blasted. Vinegar to treat rust? That should be a big red flag right...

We change 1000 a side for the panel. If we remove the quarter panel and it needs wheel wells or trunk drop downs the cost will go up depending on the extent of the damage.

I'm sure they don't make them But I'm sure they could Try this company. http://anvilauto.com/

I can only tell you what I do at my shop. We only start from bare metal. With that said 2 coats epoxy. Followed by as many times as it takes blocking and sanding with primer surface. 4 coats of primer surfacer before every sanding. When we reach the 320 strange 2 coats of primer surfacer...

Save your self the headache of stripping by hand. take the doors/ fenders/ deck lid and hood and have them blasted. epoxy when they get back do the shell the same way. much better results and a ton faster.

Not really necessary as long as the bare spots are small. but yes you could spray epoxy over the primer surface.

Look on my facebook page its in my signature. Look through the albums. You will see how we hang parts to paint

Tape off with fine line tape. cover the rest of the paper or tape. use bulldog adhesion promoter they sell it in aerosol or in quarts. aerosol is easy and quick, follow the directions on the can. no need to scuff the area first. just spray over the chrome. let it dry and spray your color. best...

24 hours on epoxy, We hang the hood to prime. Paint the underside on a stand. Back tape flip it over a paint the top side. We paint every piece of the car a part metallic or not. This takes two days to do this way to allow for dry times to back tape. But a much nice finish on the bottom side...

I still use the Iwata W400 have one for base and one for clear. They seem to do a pretty good job.

Make a template. Lay the trim face down on a piece of poster board. Trace the piece. Flip it over and firmly press the studs into the card board to leave a witness mark. Punch out the wholes were the studs marked the poster board. Cut out your tracing . Line it up on the car mark your holes and...

You will get a different answer from just about everyone that has done much of this. At my shop we use a hard block and cut with 800. This will not only cut the orange peel quick but will level the clear. hard block with 1000. switch to a soft block and sand in circular motion with 1500 then the...

Epoxy primer has no build properties to them and are not meant to be sanded. They are to seal and protect. Just like blackace said they can be reduced to a sealer to use as a base for base coat of paint. We do not do this because as I said they are not meant to be sanded. so we reduce are last...

Yes, I would suggest using the epoxy over the panels you did not strip. Going over filler is fine. The epoxy will seal the old paint from the new. Some of the older paint lines will have a chemical reaction to the new paints out today and will lift/ craze the paint below even if it has been...

Here is how we did a 64 savoy in my shop last summer. Looked great. The black is raptor liner.

For a tko swap we are talking much more than a 4 speed hump to have proper clearance. Most if not all of the tunnel will have to be fabricated.

Panel adhesive is great for intended purpose. But not for a structural part of the floor. Have I ever bonded some thing together and beat it with a hammer...Nope. But I do build cars for a living every day. And I will stick with my first statement.

Modern panel adhesives are better than welds . Not even close to a true statement.

Rage extreme. Sands much easier than the gold. Worth every penny in my book.
