Little bit of paint and body work this weekend
So I got to do a little body work and throw some rustoleum on the old GMC this weekend.
Here is how it started  Stripped off all the trim scuffed the clear and hit it with some primer  Pulled the bed painted the rims and started the body work  Both cab corners were shot painted with POR and then fiberglass  My father in-law did all the fiberglass and bondo work  My little helper  All painted and put back together   the paint and body work are far from perfect but I was really just going form rust protection for this winter and besides it just a work truck. |

I gotta say, I was worried on the first primer pic but it turned out spectacular! Great job!

Re: Little bit of paint and body work this weekend
doesn't look bad at all but be prepared for the cab corners to show up later if they had rust holes and just got fiberglass mat over them after por 15, might take it along time though with por15.

Re: Little bit of paint and body work this weekend
you might get by for a long time doing por15 on it, and mat, regualr smear on fiberglass(duraglass) and bondo usually last 6 months or a year because the area rusts further and then the body work pops out or falls out after time and blisters around the bondo.
POR15 should stop the rust so that repair might last forever, it was a pretty good idea and something to try and get by with for a while I like it lol. I've seen and done almost every cheap trick in the book to cover up rust holes. Gotta love ebing up here in all the salt in the winters, I bet Oh gets way more then us too.
