Sprayable Body Filler

[newby]

what ever you do, just remember to sand the crap back down. doing the restoration phase of my car and found literally 1/8" of spray plastic on the whole back half of the car...

when I first started stripping, i was like OH S**T! but it was kind of b.s. Once I got it stripped down, the damage they were covering up was minimal. the shop that did the repairs was just lazy and didn't do any dolly work, they just sprayed it with plastic, primed, painted and out the door.

I told you that story to tell you this one...

I did not see any cracks or other obvious flaws in this 'abuse' case. hell, except for noticing the body lines were a little thick (which I attributed to the known repaint) I thought the car had original sheet metal etc. I was wrong.

anyway, my best guess is that this lazy repair work was done in the mid 80s so that would be a 20yr guarantee for you.
