Now i cant do anything with the body until tuesday because my local paint store didnt have any durablocks (sanding block) and i couldnt find them anywhere so i had to order some off the web today. So now i just get to work on the hatch and doors.
I got a bunch of blocks :tongue: ...but i'm doing one soon at my shop.

I already blocked down the body, applied filler where needed, scuffed jams again, and now im about to go clean it and then seal and prime it. I'll have pics up by 8, but its going to look the exact same as it did last night.

3/25 Day 5
Well i got everything blocked down. Had a few low spots that needed a little bit more filler. Got that all fixed then sealed it. I'm not used to this sealer so i got a bunch of runs. Got those fixed then went to prime it and it all got fucked. Primer started cracking as soon as it started to dry. I think the problem is that it was too cold. So i just started working on one of the doors.
Tomorrow I should have the primer sanded back down, re-prime it, guide coat, and block it. Then the body will be ready for basecoat and clear. Which im going to wait for a warmer day and it cant be raining.
No pictures today cause im tired as hell and pissed. And it will just look the same as last night. I will def. have pictures up tomorrow night though.
lol yeah, i saw your others posts on the WTB forum.Quote:

3/26 Day 6
Well i got all the cracks out that happened in the primer and then started to prime it again and it cracked. Well i dedcided to try the new primer since i was use old primer. And yup, that was the problem. Im about to go back out there and sand the cracks back out then prime it tomorrow morning. So today was basically a waste of a day. Oh well.
Oh and i put a pic on the first page that my bro took the night before i started working on it.
Decided to take alittle break today since the UPS fairy came....he dropped off some goodies for me...
oh, and if you cant tell...i got the cabinet, lol....i got it alittle dirty when putting it together. I ordered it around a month ago and its been on backorder. I was quite surprised to see it today lol.
I was working on the doors yesterday....primed the pass. side and blocked it down, just added some filler where needed and started on the other door.
how long to those blocks generally last?
I just got a couple steel cabinets myself, hopefully getting more this week...
I love steel cabinets :) lol...only cost me like $40. I only use the blocks mostly for wetsanding, but they last for a long time...i've only had one of their small ones...had it for about a year or more and it still looks and performs the same way as when i got it. If you want a good cheap little cabinet, then check out harborfreight.com I ordered mine when it was on sale for $30.... http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=39213
There's a harborfreight 2 miles from my house in lilburn ;) ..but i got mine free from a local warehouse :DQuote:

Got the paint back and it still wasnt what i was looking for so i tweaked it alittle to get that shade i wanted. First pic is of the spray outs i did. Left is original San Marino Red. Middle is after i got it tweaked by the paint shop (added like 5 different reds and alittle black. Right is after i tweaked it some more(looks really dark but it really isnt that dark). Thats what the paint is going to be now.
