Karl's Old C-120

[chamjack 0]

Eldon, mine is reaching the paint stage and I have the Restoration Series System on deck ready to go. Did you use the Restoration Series Primer under your paint on that tractor? I read on some of your previous posts that the stuff takes too long to dry. I am on the fence now about the primer (and I have a gallon of it) after reading some posts on it. Looking at your work, I would like to try to achieve similar results. If I can get a tenth of that gloss on mine, I will be estatic!

Use epoxy primer over the bare metal. Then you can take your time and do any bodywork at your leisure. I used to use the resto series primer, but I don't like it at all. Yes, drying time issues.

Be sure to use the hardener with the paint. It cures faster, and provides more long-lasting gloss. Wetsand with 2000 and buff, compound, and finish glaze. Good luck and have fun with it! It's only paint, if you mess up, sand it and try again.
