oi ladies

would it be easier/better to paint an interior before or after a weld in cage goes in?

joshwa, has ur brother sprayed interiors yet? nudge nudge :domokun:

No. he wouldnt do my skyline coz I chipped too much paint off of the shell when i took the deadening out, and he was having a cry about how much work there was now.

If you remove the crap with more care then I, EG: all it needs is small amount of primer filler, primer and paint I can't see a problem.

We have moving house on the 28th of this month, so I duno when he can do anything aye.

IF i had it ready to roll in 2 weeks u reckon he'd be able to do it?

If it was me I would remove the interior, sound deadening etc first, then paint, then weld the cage in.
I would do what Keeg's said and then re-paint over the welds....well that what i will be doing...but some of the proofing will be going back in

Yeah i sorta thought that too, just wasnt too sure

cheers lads :domokun:

If you were doing it, i would do it like i did it in the race car...strip it all out, sound deadening and all, sand it back where its getting welded in like you normally do. Once the cage is all welded in and finished then go ahead and paint the whole interior. Believe me, its a pain in the arse painting everything and then having to sand it back where your welding and then touching it up. If its getting welded by mig, your going to get sparks everywhere and its going to ruin the paintjob just about everywhere inside. If its getting tig welded in then it should be ok, then its just the radiating heat from the weld area that will cook and bubble the paint outside of the sanded area as it travels through the parent metal.

But each to their own!

My line of thinking.
