[FC] more about body and paint....

[Merv and or Loretta]

Hi all! Thanx for the advice!

I have done some more shopping around and found that two local respected body
shops would paint the car if I did all the body work and prep. If my work
didn't meet their standards, they would tell me to get it right!

They both suggested using urethane primer over glazing compound, wait about a
week before sanding smooth for the primer to really harden.

One uses Dupont and the other uses Sikkens. Both will use any other paint if I
request it.

After working on my 53 GMC, I am quite confident that I can do a decent prep
job. Just hafta wait for the 20 C (72 F) days to return. (Sigh)
