Well what can l say ,l have beening working on TERESA for almost 2 years,on and off but the last 12 month pretty full on.l have made major changes to the body design,there are 6 off them 1/. The rear quarter panels has been extented 10 inches long 2/.The frount mudgaurds has been extented 5 inches longer 3/.The rear quarter and the frount mudgaurds has been lowered 3 inches 4/the dog leg have been extented 5/.The rear beaver has been extented and recess for the continental kit 6/.The rear bar is also custom made as well.There are a few more just small ones.Thats the body,Paint is two pack three layer pearl code 051 toyota l left out a few tinters out l wanted to have a clean pearl.l also so super flow coat that means you let the clear coat dry out for 2 to 3 weeks then slice it with 1000 grit wet/dry,then flow coat.then left it for 3 weeks and used G3 Farecla cutting compound,then G10 which is finer compound,use a G.MOP DO NOT USE WOOL, its will give you swells.l did not use any fine sandpaper ,the roof is same as rosie.thats all for to nite ,Alex is going to send pic for me soon SO STAY TUNE FOR NEXT TIME FROM ALFIOM

Well its alwayes best to use two pack primer then your single pack paints,so you have a much better finish,less sink backs,then when you use single top coats use 2k reducer thinners just add about 15% with you paint and use less thinners,this will give you a good gloss for single pack paints.you only need to put at lest 3 to 4 coats of two pack HS primer.this will give you good adhesive.and filling as long you repairs are good.you must use an acid before you two pack primer,this will clean the metal from rust you may not see.you do not need a ech primer.There are so many way to do a paint job,l have been in the trade for 21 years and have restored over 10 early holden of mine own .There is a way to save time and money and still do a good job, good luck and l hope you do well . From Alfio M.
