Popular Post Willie dog Posted July 7, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2016 Finally got all the filler work done and several coats of urethane primer. There are still some areas that need a little more work. I see a WHOLE LOT of block sanding in my future. 😲 Next major undertaking is to get the tank off and start on the frame. 😨 12 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/45957-so-it-continues/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddeere Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Great work. How much primer did it take? Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/45957-so-it-continues/#findComment-338774 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willie dog Posted July 8, 2016 Author Share Posted July 8, 2016 9 minutes ago, eddeere said: Great work. How much primer did it take? This round of priming took a gallon and a half. Once I finish block sanding it with 180 paper I'll put another few coats after that in prep for blocking with 400 paper. So after all is said and done I will have used 3 gallons or so. That doesn't include any of the rest of the body. I haven't touched those parts yet.

Vladislav Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I always thought restoring and collecting tanks is a nice deal. Now your work demonstrates tank trucks aren't an exception 1 Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/45957-so-it-continues/#findComment-338786 Share on other sites More sharing options...
