Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Aug 2000 Posts: 122 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2000 Posts: 122 | I got the body panels for my truck back from the shop a couple months ago and have been waiting to start the final prep for paint. The panels on my 55 1st series were returned with primer and guide coat already applied and I was told I only needed to sand prior to painting. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to approach this? I have heard a lot about block sanding, but what does this process entail? What grit sandpaper should I be using? Wet or dry sand? How do I clean it after sanding prior to painting?
I guess you guys get the drift, any info about this process would be helpful. Thanks.
