Re: 71 K20 Idaho Edition
Got the front fenders out on the front driveway and set up for a little wet sanding and blocking with some 3M wet n dry paper. Spent about an hour on each fender blocking and cleaning off to see where it was coming along. After a few rounds I use a graphite pencil to make squiggly lines where I need to knockdown more.
When I was all wrapped up I had to pull out the power washer and cleanup the driveway and while I was at it I decided to give the old 68 K20 a bath and take her for a spin. She is a little rough around the edges but I kind of like her that way.
Pict 1- is the primer and etching primer I used on this project. The primer brand is Wanda by Akzonobel and the etching primer is Martin Senour Tec, I used if I burned through the primer to metal.
Pict 2- is how I have the fender rigged up on a saw horse with a couple of clamped 2x4's. this allows me to work on stuff without having to bend over all day.
Pict 3- shows after a few passes with wet sanding I let it dry off and went over the areas that need more sanding with a graphite pencil.
Pict 4, 5- a few shots after getting the 68 K20 washed off with the power washer and headed out for a little drive in the hills behind by house.
