what to do with the seams
Posted: 15 Apr 2011, 20:44
Hi everyone.
I've just started the bodywork on my 81 leisure drive poptop. I looks like the previous owners have done some body work in the past. The seams have what looks like filler in them. I have read on here that this is not really I could thing. So I have started raking the seams out with a 4" rotary wire brush. My question is, what do I re-seal the seams with after I have cleaned them. I have pre-treated with vatcan bit have not painted yet. Thanks. Sorry if this has been asked a thousand times before, I've had a look round the wiki and other posts on the forum first, this is the first time I've been anywhere near any bodywork since my first car (ford escort) in 1984. It's also my first Aircooled anything
