JohnD1956 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 (edited) Now there's gonna be trouble! LOL.. Be careful with that thing. It will take your skin off your hand, and it will warp body panels if used incorrectly.

old-tank Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 A small blaster like that will be no problem: keep it moving and blast at an angle; use new and sharp sand; put your hand behind the panel and move when you detect any heat build up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dei Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Sure wish I had your abilities! Doing this work must give you great satisfaction. I would imagine locating a piece like that in good condition in your country would be like finding a needle in a hay stack and given the cost (and time) to find one here, you have likely saved by doing this yourself. Looking forward to your continued progress. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebastienbuick Posted December 18, 2016 Author Share Posted December 18, 2016 Hello, thank you dei ;).Yes indeed to find this piece in France would be very difficult.Then with some information and research there is very little of this model of the same year in France.And as his I learn to work metal :).
