    I have found the secret to body prep and painting. I do machining for my painter and he does painting for his machinest.

    Thanks guys. That sounds like the way to do it, Bruce..........trade labor for labor.

    When I worked at the body shop (I was office staff, not a tech) I would see our guys out there sanding away all day, prepping cars, and they did it day in, day out. I would just get up in the morning and shoot myself if I had to go to work and do that. I guess every job has people who like it though.

    Nice part is, we are heading to the shop in a little while to do more sanding on his bed. Dan has actually done most of the work on the sanding so far though. I don't do it to what I know his standards are, and he is also doing things like rounding corners while he is prepping it. So, I either work on wiring my 27 or on building my minibike.
