Speaking of Plasti dip. I picked up 4 cans from Lowes so when it gets into the 50s in a week or 2 I'm gonna do my rockers and rear quarter.
The solder iron Is for stippling a couple of my handguns

I would just give it a good a good bath.. But even that shouldn't be too important because I would hope they are going to sand the paint off the before they spray the new stuff... What color are you going?

Nice! Can't wait to see how it comes out.. Smart to wait till it gets a bit warmer. The day I did mine it was cold and windy as hell. But I just couldn't take waiting any longer lol

Nice!

I can't wait to see it. I don't know if I should go with those or get more Kc's for the roof rack. I want to see how bright they are.

You should check out the LED lights I put on mine they're dirt cheap, bright, and local so you can pick them up. That's the best part, I HATE waiting for shipping.
