Prepping the car for paint

Its now been 3 days since we started prepping the car. Its a much bigger task than i'd thought it would be (and I knew it would be time consuming) but we're making progress.

A friend whose name is also James is helping paint it given thats his actual profession. I'm just a jockey being told what to do learning the process. So far the exterior panels bar the doors and front guards have all been primed. That stuff is like concrete and I can see its going to be a massive job to sand.




I've spent 3-4 hours so far just sanding the interior. The scratches put in the metal from us removing sound deadening is taking ages to remove.

We'll soldier on though... Friday night will be finishing off prepping the interior for it to be primed on the weekend.

Hoping to then paint the interior the following weekend.
