My Sandblast guy called me at 6:30 am this morning and asked if I wanted to get going since it wasn't raining. And of course I had to say yes! Had 2 sandblasters running at the same time, took both of us a total of 3 hours to get the entire lv blasted, excepted for the inside and outside of the roof.

I have another person I want to add to my list of people to track down and beat....... the guy who thought he was a body man when he fixed this thing. I don't think I've ever seen this much plastic on a vehicle ever. Almost everything could have been pulled out with a stud gun, I don't know why they didn't do that in the first place? I'm pretty sure this thing has been hit from almost every angle. The worst is the left rear quarter. That entire quarter panel has been replaced, you can see the writing also on the inside of it also. Extremely poor replacement and probably will have to be taken out to straighten out some other things. Right rear door post was tweaked back next to the that quarter and they never fixed that either. It may take me a bit longer than I anticipated to fix all this stuff???? But, it can be fixed.

Even got the wife out AGAIN helping scrape the remaining headliner off and vacumming up silca sand. Excellent helper, when I can get her to come out to the shop

1 light coat of self-etching and 2 coats of DP50LF. If I get time tomorrow I'm going to take a zip wheel and try to grind down the roof inside and out. Try to get that into primer also, we'll see?
