Superbird McMonte Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 Recently I painted an AAR ‘cuda in Panther Pink. I went to apply clearcoat the other day and it went horribly wrong. The paint built up too much in certain areas are then hardly any in others. So I decided to strip it with Easy-Off. Well, that didn’t work. Clearcoat was hard as nails! I was about to trash it when I thought I’ve got nothing to lose by putting it in the bead blaster. I really expected it just to get blown apart. But to my surprise it worked! And quite well I made it. A day later the car is back in prime. And waiting for more Panther Pink! Halfway through I considered doing a barn find! Maybe next time!
TarheelRick Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 Are you talking about an industrial type bead blaster or a home-style? What type blasting medium did you use?
Bucky Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 Interesting method! Share some more details with us!
Snake45 Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 Maybe it doesn't WANT to be Panther Pink. If it were me, I'd take the hint.
vamach1 Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 One of the best MOPAR designs. I was never a fan of the larger cars that looked something you father would drive.
