Greetings,
I have a 74, with T-Tops... looks like original paint, but im not sure... it has bubbles in the paint just about everywhere, so i did a search on how to strip it properly. i read some previous posts about not sanding thru the gel coat, but it looks to me like these bubbles are pretty thick (about 1/16 or so) so my guess is that its peeling up from the fiberglass, and im afraid that when i go to sand this car down (by hand!) that im gonna ruin my chances of painting it again... i do not have much experience with fiberglass... you can probably tell my the nickname my father gave me (hes a big ford fan) for buying this car that im pretty much on my own. any help, book titles, sites, condolences, etc... would be greatly appreciated... you can post here or just email me it matters not, i will check both...
thanks in advance!
