SO, deployed, got back, bought a bunch of crap, a house (with a bada$$ garage), knocked the wife up, and started working on the charger again!!!!!!!!!

pics to come tomorrow

my main reason for logging on here (other than to waste time oogling other peoples cars) was to ask
what grit sandpaper do you guys use when stripping your cars of paint and rust etc...

currently i have a 7 in rotary sander, a 5 in DA sander, and a 40 gallon sandblaster (for those hard to reach/    F*(& THIS!!!!     situations) 
ive been using 80 grit mainly, and its still been a hassle with the DA, and the rotary obliterates any body lines or anything other than flat surfaces, and the sandblaster is just too small do the whole car with

thanks in advance!


Got slapped by my wife for keeping an engine in the bedroom........yeah, pretty much sums up my life

Better hurry up and get that car done before the kid arrives cause then on fourth all that extra money to go onto the car will go to the kid.
