[Chevelle-list] [OT] Today Show set
Just an FYI. A set that I built will be appearing tomorrow (Monday) morning at 8:45 EST on The Today Show with Katie Couric and guest Jim Miller (author of Savvy Senior). I just got back from there and it looks like it's supposed to. Jim was there, Katie was not. John Nasta
[Chevelle-list] off topic M38
Is there any experts or knowledge out there on a 1952 ford M38 army jeep? Or a good source for information? I have too restore one for my friend this winter. I will be putting pictures up later of it on my website. Thanks again
Re: [Chevelle-list] Interior color
Randy, The restoration guide says " The upper portion should be painted in 0 degree gloss and the lower portion in 30 degree gloss." The paint color codes they list are in Dupont, 30 degree is 99L and 0 degree is 4428L. In Ditzler it's 9000 for 30 and 9317 for 0. Your auto paint store should be able to match one of these codes. Hope this helps. Mike Holleman - Original Message - From: Randy Barron To: The Chevelle Mailing List Sent: Sunday, November 07, 2004 1:07 PM Subject: [Chevelle-list] Interior color Since the list is on interior paints and such, I thought I would wade in with a question. I have a 1968 SS El Camino with a black interior. I used SEM Trim Black for the exterior grill, grill extensions etc, which matched perfectly to the original finish, but in comparing that to the existing black interior finish there is definitely a difference in the gloss. I need to paint the steering column, glove box door and surrounding area as well as behind the seats. Does anyone know the correct finish IE. satin, semi gloss, flat etc? Any help would be great. Randy

Re: [Chevelle-list] Dash board paint....
John, Powder coat process requires heat. That is not an option on a dash unless you plan on removing it from the car. Strip it to bare metal, apply a good self etching primer and paint with a good quality paint such as a urethane. Unless you want a high gloss you will have to flatten the paint with a ftattening agent. Your dash was 60 percent gloss originally. Your local auto paint store can mix what you need.

Re: [Chevelle-list] paint stripping
It depends on what you mean by chemical stripping. If you mean dipping the body, I would recommend against it. With dipping you need to have the shell absolutely bare. This will take all protective coating from areas you will never be able to coat w/o E-coating that will start to rust immediately. The worst thing about dipping is, if you have thin metal or much rust you will have nothing when they are finished. The only way I would recommend dipping is if you are going to have the body E-coated after. This will seal all there areas mentioned earlier. If your talking about manual chemical stripping, it is messy but you can do a great job on flat surfaces. It is difficult to get areas in the door jambs and under side of trunk and hood but can be done. Advantage is you can do it yourself. Bead blasting will do a great job removing old paint. If you have a lot of rust it will blow through these areas. You must paint immediately after blasting to prevent flash rust. Again blasting will remove paint in areas that can be difficult to cover w/ paint again but if you're very diligent about it you should be able to coat all the surfaces. Hard spots are under the hood and trunk. With blasting you will need to clean and clean and clean after blasting and then clean again or you will blow out dust when you paint and it will ruin your finish. If you leave the interior in, it will be a bear to clean In my opinion, of the three methods mentioned, bead blasting does the best job if: You have the time to prime immediately. You have a place that can do it for you. You clean, clean, clean after blasting and before painting. You strip everything on the exterior so they can do a good job.
