Hey, Loopframers..
I'm on the final stretch of my '72 Ambo restoration and are prepping the
sheetmetal for painting. I intend to do my own paintwork and would be
interested if any of you have experience in masking the chrome panels..
I've stripped the tank to bare metal and will be shooting an etching primer,
then an epoxy sandable primer, and finally a 2-part acrylic enamel .. solid
color with clearcoat.
Any tips on masking and pinstriping would be appreciated.
