I was using the wire wheel to remove the primer and then using p80 disks on the DA or by hand to KEY the panel.

Progress looks great! It's giving me confidence to replace some small panels on my van! Will be looking up m-machine for sure.

Got some more done this weekend no pictures tho guys, although I have brought some wheels and they are neither splits or reverse rims, staying archless so didn't want splits as would poke out to much, the under side is around 90% ready for the primer then I'll crack on and seem seal and raptor the bottom

Brought a few other bits like clutch and brake master,clutch slave,handbrake quads and pins and also a VDO Rev counter got it all as a deal with the wheels, well they will be mine when I pick them up from bingley, oh and when I pay for them on Tuesday lol


A few pics
