Re: MFG rebuild getting started pics

Thanks guys ! Well I couldn't find the valspar so I just went with the rusto metal primer for the second coat .

I hope to put some finish color on tomorrow after work. I have been thinking I will paint the frame white . The axle springs and hubs black . Maybe the fenders green with white stripes and just maybe a black stripe down the side rail .

Re: MFG rebuild getting started pics

I like how you got it all hanging....makes it much easier to paint that way...looking good, hoope you don't have to work too many hours today!

Re: MFG rebuild getting started pics

^^^ The only problem with hanging the pieces is they kinda swing around when spraying . Ya have to put a finger or too on it while spraying .. Got the first coat of finish on at about 6 o'clock so I,m staying up and shooting coat #2 on at around 10 ish .. op2::yawn::brushteeth::clock::nod:

Like how you have every thing hanging, like Trooper said, We did this in a sheetmetal shop I used to work for.. Works good..
Don't work to hard.. Get a Frosty and relax some..It will be there tomorrow..:lol:

Re: MFG rebuild getting started pics

Thanks Decker ! A little to late in the day for a frosty one . That would put me to sleep !
Speaking of sleep or lack there of , I finished up spraying second coat , prepped and SE axles and hubs , cleaned up and made it into the house at 1 o'clock .. Gunna shoot the axles and hubs,springs today amongst starting on a hunny do list a mile long . LOL !!

Hey , check out the totally awesome set of rims that came with the trailer !!

:facepalm::tsk: This will have to be addressed . But then again I can't see both sides at one time ! :lol:

Yeah, I know...too late to do you any good, but next time, keep a coat hanger handy, bend a comfy handle on on end and a bit of a hook on the other to use as a stabilizer when spraying dangling parts...:bolt:
