What do you folks recommend for prep? I thought about using some of that
red putty in a tube, its sandable.
any thoughts?
thanks

Dave I use one of these for jobs like that. I think they still sell them down at Northern. Depending on what I'm blasting I will run baking soda, play sand or that black beauty they sell at TS. Of course you will have to have a compressor, but they work well for small jobs.
The speed blasters will penetrate deep where there is pitting.
And of course a good primer as soon as you clean it off. I clean it by air, simple green, lacquer thinner or tack rags and then prime.
