HI

In Baja Mexico Todos Santos mostly work this week but now sitting in the shade by the pool thinking about what I need to do

headed back to Venice Friday and need to get the taillights turn lights etc back in the newly painted 87……. soon need to get it tunneled up to get it smog tested soon by February

I have the satan black paint just wondering how fine a grid you who have done this use to prep the plastic

3M Micron polishing papers (6 steps from 30 microns to 1 micron “grit would something like this works best ?

there was a bit of talk about this a while back and even I seem to have a large file of tips etc did not note this one

Finally slowly getting the 87 Westy 93 Sube powered back on the road it now lives in our garage so I can work on it when ever I get time
