Random Thought Thread

The paint job layed out nicely..... I rarely ever get runs in paint jobs but yes there's always a chance for debris

I have a weird routine on everything I paint (I even time myself on all steps lol)... all my steps minimize me having to buff after I paint something so I can keep pushing cars through the booths and not have to touch them afterwords (this is a whole different animal that itches the scratch of work i did when I first started doing this job and was lucky enough to work on a lot of custom vehicles)

Also it's cool I'm getting a chance to show my younger friends "how things were done back in the day" lol


Hand sanding is the key .... I'll start at 1200 always using some sort of block and lots of water working in squares if that makes sense , you can feel and see when the paper has done it's job (always make sure there isn't stray debris grinding and scratching into the paint)

Move onto 2000 grit... repeat

Move onto 2500 grit.... repeat

At 3000 and 5000 I'll move to 3m wet d/a paper

Then buff and polish

trevitrace trevitrace I don't remember where you are located but if it's close enough to visit me I'll be more than happy to help you out and help you buff out your 4 runner!
That's a mighty generous offer.

I'm in NW Wisconsin, so not a crazy distance from you and I'm fairly certain the Roja would make it there. I figure I'd need at least a week off for this project... one day to drive, a couple/few days to work and have adult beverages, two days to recover, one day to drive back. If I have an extra week off in the next few years you've got yourself a date.
