72 duster Build progress

well,going backwords guys. I was block sanding and noticed a few spots when I got down to metal I seen surface rust. Not sure how it happened because I prepped everything and used prepsall on everything before primer and had 2 water filters (one on line,one on gun) and my tank was drained. The steel was nice and clean before primer.

so as of right now I have been sanding and whenever I find a bad spot I am taking it back down to metal and getting it clean again and using wax and grease remover on it again and re etch priming it.

I hate it when you finally feel like your taking a step forward just to get set 3 steps back!. I had it all set up to be painted next weekend. but this crap is going to set that back by a week or 2 or so probably.

I guess ill keep sanding and find any areas effected and clean them up and etch primer them again and then once all thats done and out of the way I will prime it one more time,sand,then spray the sealer. And THEN it can be ready to go in for paint.

its days like these that I just want to be done with it already...:banghead:


We had pretty much the same thing happen with the buggy... and it does suck. Set backs always blow.. Its just good you found it now, and its a quick fix.. Stay positive my friend, your still a lot closer to the finish line than you think.. And dont feel too bad, I had the buggy out for just two weeks, and shes down already LMAO ...
