Undercoating the bus takes a day.twinfalls wrote: To renew it seems a hell of a job. How long would this project, be ?
Recent cars have rubber bellies all under them, don't they ? Could we fit some under the bus for better heat, less noise, less rust ?
Morning: scraper and brush any loose flakes off.
Mid-morning: Wash underside with plenty of high-pressure water.
Midmorning nap: let dry.
Lunchtime: spray all rustyish surfaces with rust-catalyzing primer, get up in all drain holes, compressed air is very helpful for driving it up.
Afterlunch nap: let dry.
Afternoon: three light coats of paintable rubberized undercoating, should take about 8 cans.
Afternoon nap: let dry
Late afternoon: four cans of universal black anypaint on the undercoating.
Beer break.
Then you can go in for dinner, " hey baby, whash for dinner, hic "
