Did a little work on the tailgate, repaired the bed sills and setup a DIY media blasting booth big enough for the whole truck. Tailgate came out ok but not as well as I had hoped. Shrinkage left me with a low spot that I'm just going to have to use some filler in. Don't think I'll attempt the rest of it since I'll be using filler anyway. If it doesn't come out well enough, I'll buy a new one.
