Hey everyone , now the body is ready,now the panels,show you all the mudgurd,and the boot lid,this first pic is the
mudgurd,as you can see l also use the striper disc in side the panels,to get the best job ,its is so importent to blast
inside and underneath the panels,thats were it normally start to rust were the drain holes are eather block up with
dirt or with underbody sealers,with the Black FC shell the rear lower quatur panels ,and the rear beaver panel (were
the petrol cap is ) l found rust under the tar sealer from Factory,you may wonder how do l now this ,well when you pick
off the tar sealer you can see shiny metal form new,they musted seal the cars then painted,it should be the other way
around. p.s yes its a FE mud guard,not now.
now you see the out side ,all clean metal,mudgurd are very hard to find real good one l have lot of guards, l pick the
best l have to do this FC,
,if you are doing a nice FE or FC try to get the best panels you can .this panel is now ready for prepsol and eching
with 2 to 1 mix.
next we have the boot ,as you can see all been plasic blasted,then l run over a soft wire wheel, not the striper disc,
the FE and FC boot lids are common rust area is under the panel were the boot key lock is ,making sure is very clean
,what l do is before l ech the shell and the panels ,l use a rust converter call (white night ) from bunning wearhouse.
it a sealer,and a primer as well,either you brush it ,or you get a pump bottle and go for it ,then you ech it , when
the whole job is finished then you can use cavity wax over it,thats all for tonite stay tune next stage cheers from
AlfioM P.S l will show you all the tools and matrials l use to help a long.
here are more pic of the underneath ready for ech priming,as you can see all been all plastc blasterd and prepsol and
ready to go , with underneath the car you dont need to sand it, to many hard to get areas,this is the perfect way of
preparations of blasting, and coated with metal primer ,so all you need to do is give it a good prepsol to clean the
the metal .
the bonnet ready underneath for ech priming ,every step i do the out side the for ech priming i do underneath and
inside all panels.
doors ready to ech primed . very clean rust free and only a few dent which l show you how l repaired them.
rear shot of the car both rear qurtuar panels few minor dents and rear beaver panel bit of rust needs replaced on the
outer lower corner of the both rear qurtuer panels and under neath of the both rear tail of the beaver panel very minor
very clean ready for ech priming. cheers from AlfioM
okk let get back into the resto enough talking now,about ,now after all the steps ,we have ech primer appled,this ech
primer is a 2 to 1 mix.it called Hepox it used for older metal. its a Spice Hecker product.you do not need to use metal
conditioner.onces you apply two coats ,then its baked for 45 mins ,on 60 degre.
plz do not take noties of the date, ,of these pics,as you can see all ready for repairing. l normally let the ech
primer dry for few weeks,even after the bake.
the floors are in good order few area need attentions,other wise not to bad. the sill panel been replaced l prefitted
the doors before it was blasted and like Fast eddy said it best to use thr same doors. makes life a lot easyer.
underneath all done nice and clean,all underneath will be painted in 2 to 1 satton black, no stone gaurd, all under
neath will be as good as the out side. any dents will be nock out and primed and rub down like the out side.there will
be a few hours Note the inner rear quarturs very clean no rust ,and the spare tyre.see you all next time cheers from
AlfioM
