Another terrible refinishing thread

Post by 4A-GE » Sun Jun 29, 2014 6:52 pm

Pulled my front lip off today; primed it to see how bad the scrapes and shit were.
Can I use interior plaster on this thing, or do I need to use proper bog on it?

I don't think my friends minded after me doing the wheels.

lol, bog n' sand. I doubt the primer will fill the gaps that've found their way into the thing in its 25 year lifetime.

If you get a chance, pop round to my place, we can bog and sand it tonight, or something, I just finished shaving my passenger wing mirror, and repaired my finish panel.

Not sure why your mirror was hairy, but, ok.
I haven't even looked in the shed for bog yet; tonight isn't ideal mind. Any other days? (I have the day too.)

It's pushing shit up a hill until like 7 because traffic is just that arse, but I'll see what goes. Too much of a pussy to go out in the rain to the shed atm. :lol:

Valid point!

Let me know if you want a hand or anything, my car is no 90% done so I'm just wasting my time away until the weekend.
