All, I need some help. I have an '80 Spitfire that sat outside in the Texas sun for several years prior to my acquisition. I would like to repaint her this spring. What I need help with is resources on how to prep the car for painting. There is a few surface rust spots and a minor ding or two. The car is white and the paint is heavily oxidized. Can some one recommend a web site(s), book(s), magazine article(s), etc. that would give me good basic instructions?
I plan on painting her with a fresh coat of white and then the scheme of the British Flag. I have a hard top (OEM) that I purchased from a guy that had a yellow Spitfire. I think it will need to go all the way down to metal due to the very poor condition of the paint. Thanks for the help, spit_driver Austin, Texas /// [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list /// Send admin requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] /// or try http://www.team.net/cgi-bin/majorcool /// Archives at http://www.team.net/archive /// Send list postings to [EMAIL PROTECTED] /// Edit your replies!
