I have had great success with restoring wheels
I would definitely fill them with a bondo, one brand in particular, (not just any bondo) then sand them first with 180 paper, then go to 400 paper water is not necessary here
I will post the brand of Bondo tomorrow when I get back from my shop.

[Chevelle-List] awfully quiet out there

2003-02-15 Thread Stephen Lentz
Hey...is my computer working?  I haven't seen any new messages lately.  I
picked up my new frame and took it to my body man's house to get
sandblasted.  I was so inspired that I opened my rear garage door and began
sandblasting the rest of my SS wheels.  I just got done putting my third
coat of sandable primer.
One or two of the wheels have some pitting in noticeable areas.  The pits
may be too deep for the primer.  Should I use some kind of body filler to
make everything super smooth?  What would be a good filler to use.
Secondly, what grade sandpaper should I use to wet-sand the wheels after I
get through building a good primer base?
If everything works out OK, I might be getting BFG Radial T/A tires mounted
the end of next weekend.  Should I go with Comp T/A's instead.  I probably
won't be going to the track, but I do see a bit of street tests.

By the way, does anyone out there sell the trim rings and center caps?  Mine
are pitted and scratched up.

Have a great weekend!
Steve
