Read sweetlou's how to, very informational and got a good starting point. I need to prep my body for my buddy to paint and have a few questions...
I need to do some plastic welding to fill some gouges on a few panels. What size grit would you use the prep for plastic welding?
In the end I'm going to smooth everything down with 400 grit then 600. There's a lot of contours and a lot of ground to cover. There's gotta be something better than just using the palm. I've looked at sanding blocks but thier ridgid and looking for something that will conform to the surface better. What about palm sanders? Has anyone used them sucsessfully or do you have use the manual approach? I've found a soft sanding block but it has a velcro backside and the sheets that go with it only come in course grit. I guess I could velco some traditional sheets but is there anything better? Any other advice is welcome...
