and you really don't want to hear about how I know this......:cry:
(Rodney) Yes he suggested soda blasing, plus he has just finished two near new GT Falcons in dark blue, for Ford, obvioiusly there was some problem with paint adhesion from the factory....so I assume is knows what he is doing, but I will talk to him
