![]() Pull the chrome rims off the light and remove the lights and bowls from the body.
If you are using a professional painter --- highly recommend. Let him worry about the acid etch primer and non porous filler. Just concentrate on getting all the lights and trim off - and old paint. If you are keeping it the same colour and thee paint is sound you maybe just need to etch the surface.-- get advise from whoever is painting it. Bristol Cars have the screen rubbers you will need. Get a glass specialist to remove and replace the glass. Shop around for painters and look at their other work. Good luck |

![]() You will propably find that the light bowls are really rusty.
You can get new ones easily. The same applies for the chromed surrounds. Personally, i would not tackle the actual paintjob myself, I think you are a very brave man! Do not forget, that those large, flat areas need to be expertly painted. |
