Brockport Bill 2,011 #65 Posted 6 hours ago very impressive !!!!!! do you do all bloc hand sanding? or do you use any power sanders or grinder sanding discs etc? When convenient, could you post a photo or tell us the light redish primer paint product you use? thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
