1972 Duster Build with my Daughter
The JB Weld was hard this morning and Kaelyn was ready to go. Worked all day on a variety of projects....
The tape pulled right off! No sticking at all. Perfect...
I used a file to flatten the areas where the bolts and then some 320 paper by hand.
Started with 80 grit. Be very careful you don't dig the plastic too hard. I would start with 180 next time to reduce the amount of sanding to fix these scratches..
Then 180 grit to finish it off.
Mixed up so filler I had left over from the body work and filled it.
180 - 320 - 800 grit and it was all smooth. I then put it in the bead blast cabinet and blasted it all to a consistent sheen.
Kaelyn spread the reflectors with Krylon Chrome paint.
SEM satin black on the backside and the Left one is done. The right I am waiting for the new lens before putting it in for good. It is just finger tight right now.
