So I was out doing some wheeling in Uwharrie National Forrest and it turned out to be a bad day, I ended up smashing one of my rockers




So I figured that I can just pop out the dent, then sand the rough spots, bondo the real low spots, sand some more and then apply some paint. Does that sound like that would be a good way to repair the damage.

 

sliders sounds like an investment for you.

 

might be better to locate another rocker at the junk yard

 

Well ive been outside pushing the dent out ive got about 2/3 of it put back. So does anybody have any good advice about painting the scratches?

 

If you're going to spray bomb it then you should use many thin coats and wet sand in between the last few. Another way to get good results is use "rockerguard" it leaves a kind of textured finish and is waaay tougher than normal paint. Plus when you bomb it after rockerguarding it, it's much easier to get acceptable because you're not worrying about the smoothness.

I hope that makes sense, today is Thanksgiving and turkey makes my brain slow.

 

chicks dig that...thats what i heard

 

Find some BONDO spot filler, the red stuff... it works pretty well at filling in stuff that's less than 1/4" deep.

 

when i wet sand what grit should i use? 800, 900?
