I've been hanging around the restoration forum and I'm finding I really like working with fiberglass and gelcoat. My pickup is one of the old Fords with the rusty wheel arches and bad paint.
Is there any reason why I can't sand down the rust to bare metal and repair the holes with 1708 and poly resin? Once the holes are gone, I'd like to power wash all the spray paint the previous owner put on there, clean it up with acetone and gelcoat the whole truck!
Is this a bad idea?
