I love bondo

Bondo is some odd stuff, but it's cool.


I painted it with some left over blue paint to see how it would look pianted, and it looked like crap so I resanded with 400 grit sand paper.

Sanded a little more.

The new primer.

Yeah I hate when I paint something and see some crap in the paint that makes me re-paint the whole thing.

Yeah, that really sucks.

***Update***
The primer is going on.

Side panels.

Grhhh, dog hair.

Sorry for the lack of updates, I've been really busy.

Window etching!

The paint is starting to go on.

I want one of those super high gloss paint jobs. Can I sand the paint with 800 grit sandpaper, and then put the clear coat on it, so it's glossy?

I would do 1000 and 2000 wet and then clear

1000+ isnt coarse enough of a tooth for clear... I's stick with 600-800 grit block sanding, tack rag it, wax and grease remover... then clear. wet sand your clear with 1000-2000 (cutting) and then buff it.

lookin good

Just curious, when you used the bondo to fill in the floppy drive.. what did you put behind it to save on the fill?

I tried doing that and had a hell of a time filling it all in.

aluminum tape does the job.

I used masking tape, it worked perfect.
