Got around to stripping back the roof to bare metal last week. Deoxidine and coated in a nice coat of Chamois epoxy prime paint for you Jeza. Roof was in very good nick under all that old primer, and the gutters were perfect (bonus). I treated all the tiny rust pits three times, buffed with a nylon scotch brite pad then deoxidised again, so I'm confident it isn't going to come back and bite me. The weather was good for painting today I have to be careful with humidity and temperature when spraying in the shed, a booth would be nice but I will just make good with what I have. Underside of the bonnet, tailgate and roof are all in Hi-fill, so hopefully I'm getting close to finishing the body repairs. I have to attack the scuttle tray outer ends which isn't a biggie. However every time I double check the body there seams to be something I am not 100% happy with and end up doing a tiny repair. I hate being fussy but it gets the better of me every time, so small a defect they most wouldn't pick it, just got to do it till I am happy, peace of mind.
