Haha! Honestly, I hate the push-button start most cars have these days. I prefer to turn a key.Fill in the key switch hole,and put in pass key start button
Awesome. I think I probably will. It will save me the cost of buying a dash. How about the HVAC controls opening?Key switch is still in place on my junker 64 1/2 so the opening must still be good if you need it
With a da? I’ll start with 80 grit. Don’t remove all of the paint with that, get to where the e-coat is mostly visible, then finish stripping with 180.@Davedacarpainter @horse sence What grit do you typically use when you strip a panel to bare metal with a DA? Is there any other prep you do before primer?
Thanks. So sand it and primer straight away? Do you wipe it down with anything like mineral spirits or a tack cloth beforehand?With a da? I’ll start with 80 grit. Don’t remove all of the paint with that, get to where the e-coat is mostly visible, then finish stripping with 180.
Don’t put your hands on the bare metal, it’s even best to use clean gloves on your hands when you start hitting the metal.
Then epoxy primer or etch primer. Don’t etch then epoxy primer, they don’t work well together. Don’t delay long on coating it with one of those. Bare metal should be treated like a baby.
Only with wax and grease remover if it got something on it. Just blow it off while dusting with a clean rag first.Thanks. So sand it and primer straight away? Do you wipe it down with anything like mineral spirits or a tack cloth beforehand?
