FENDER PROGRESS

                              The first step was to strip the fenders of all there

                              accessories and then to begin sanding them.

                              Towards the bottom of the fender there was an

                              undercoating product called Zebart. The only way this was

                              removed was by soaking the fender in brake-clean and

                              scrubbing it with a nylon brush.

                            Well this is the final product of refinishing the fender liners.

                            Head to page 6 to see what kind of paint I used. I think you'll

                            be suprised.
