After Many Hours Of Pressure Washing & 25 Rattle Cans Later...
Hello!
It all started with repairing a small dent... I'll just shoot a little Rust Oleum 1917 khaki over it to protect the metal. Well, maybe I'll do a little around it. Now the door looks stupid...
You've all been there before and I thought you'd appreciate the photos!
I have to sand the top down some more and put a couple more coats of paint up there due to the wind averaging 7 mph that day! And it was gusting to 21 mph so I guess the fact that any paint hit it was pretty good! I had to hold the can about 2" from the surface to get any paint on it at all! I was using a can holder/trigger attachment and put about 4-5 thin coats over it and yes it was a baked on finish! I was snow blind for hours after starting the paint job as that white paint was a killer to try to paint over in the sun.
Here's a video of some IFA W50's that must be seen to be believed and even then you wont believe it! The part of the video I'm talking about starts at 6:35 on the clock so watch closely! You know what the kids are saying in any language! One of them says: "IFA"!!! (Pronounced: E-FA) and buddy that says it all...
Thanks for posting!
Are the brake drums also pressurized or axle housings only?

A Veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to The United States of America for an amount of 'up to and including my life.' That is Honor, and there are far too many people in this country who no longer understand it.
