While I'm on a roll

Bodywork was the one thing I was a bit nervous of when I decided on my GT6. Mechanical stuff and interior is no problem but anything to do with filling, sanding and painting scares me to death. However, after doing a pretty good job on the bonnet I decided to plow on with the passenger door and a small area of rust on the bottom edge.

The whole area around the sills needs a spruce up to be honest but they are still very solid so its not drop dead urgent. Firstly I removed the surface paint with 80 grit paper and a rust/sanding block. After getting back to metal all around the rust area and removing as much rust as I could I used some rust converter and filled with small amount of P38 filler.

I then set about this with 600 grit paper until it was smooth and then used some etch primer which was in turn sanded down with 600 grit paper.

Out came the Rimmer Bros aerosol again and well, lets just say I havent taken any photos just yet until Ive got rid of some the runs. I knew I was getting too confident.
