Thank you.

A DA Sander is a Dual Action Sander. That way you lessen the chance of swirl marks in the surface that show in your paint. I linked to one at HF for you. And ask all the questions you need, I am glad I can finally start to payback to members on this site with help and info for all the help...

I used a fine silica sand from Menards(Home Depot type store here). I tried Black Diamond from TSC, but that would plug up the nozzle real fast and I use the largest available size they had at HF. I know you can have custom made nozzles, but for me that would be a waste of money and time. I...

Thank you Mike. I set them free at poofs place. Now they can run free and pee on all of his tires.

I borrowed a NT 40 pounder from drgreg. I only blasted the bed, one door, the windshield frame and the grill with it. The hood, fenders and drivers door we all new so I only needed to sand them with the DA a little bit. If I ever did it again I may consider renting a sand blaster. Each panal...

I was just cleaning out my email and found one from drgreg. It was a few pics of my deuce before I picked it up. What a difference a little bit of sanding and paint will make. I will just have to learn how to do side by side pics.

It's been a very long time since I was down that way. I do have family there I really should visit. You may have a deal.

That took him almost a week after school. It was the most focused I've ever seen him.

One pic I forgot to share was this one. I gave my son a printed copy of the TM camo pattern to color by number. When he saw the deuce all painted he looked at it and told me "daddy, you did almost as good of a job as me". Gotta love that boy.

I thank all of you for the compliments. Having my peers review and like my work is a great honor. And to anyone who would like me to do their truck next, sure. Bring it to WI with a few gaallons of paint and a few hundred pounds of blasting sand and you can pick it up in a few weeks. Did I...

How about you just send me a set of singles and the rims to match? Wouldn't that be a better idea?

I did my best on the cab forward to follow the TM. Then I put the cover on and used it as a guide. I am not sure how long the all of the masking took, but I know the bed was over 3 hours for the brown and at least another 1 for the black.

This should be the last group of them.

And just a few more.

And even more pics.

Well it took me just over 5 weeks with only a few breaks in there, but the deuce is done for now. What I mean by that is I still have the interior, frame, axles and some other odds and ends to paint. I will get to those when the snow and cold come back to visit. For now it's time to enjoy the...
