alright let me start out by saying i DO NOT AT ALL IN ANY WAY envy you guys that do body work for a living...i salute you!

now with that said i'm smoothing my dashboard this weekend & already have the first stage of sanding done...here's some pics of how the dash looked before i started (just for the record this was not the dash that was in my truck...picked it up for free from a buddy in FLA)

and for those who are curious it's getting smoothed then painted black

 

Post 80 Grit:

 

I'm wanting to do this my self thanks for the pics and info. Can't wait to see the finished product. Please take as many pics of your progress as possible. Thanks

 

plan on it buddy...just remember...it's not as fun as it looks lol

 

How fine are you going up to on the grit?

 

started at 80 went to 180 then goin 220 i'm done with the 220 already & tomorrow i can lay filler & spray

 

yeah its a PITA lol. ive done a cluster bezel before and it turned out nice but was a bitch to get it right...

 

Wow...cool project!!! Post up some update pics!!

 

definately gotta wait for everyone else to wake up before i go out & hit it with the 220 one more time gotta question about spray guns...i have a pressure feed...anybody know what psi to run it at?
