Boy sanding is a lot of fun.

I'm still not finished with my stang's paint job. I've got to sand and reclear it, oh and totally redo my front bumper because I forgot to ust the adhision promoter on it. Suck it didn't peel until after I spent hours wetsanding it.

There's some kinda wetsander thing that's supposed to make it a lot faster because you can use a da.

And then 3M makes some kinda hook paper that you can use without water.

I looked into using it for a while but didn't really have the money to move forward on it. Might have saved me a lot of time and elbow grease. I do like working with my large sanding block. I figure it's helping me keep the car straight.

Thanks for the info

What did you forget to do on your front bumper? What kind of bumper is it?

I forgot to use an adhesion promoter on the thing so the primer just piled off. It is one of these rubber/urethane bumpers.

Damn I just read my post. Boy was I having problems with spelling that night.
