Until now I was able to sand-glass blast everything myself. For the parts that where to big for the cabin I did it with wire brushes (with or without the help of a drilling machine). But the steel doors are very difficult to clean from the inside and sand blasting seems the only easy solution. I’ve always been very reserved with sand blasting parts by specialized companies because I am afraid that the parts will be damaged in some way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After inspecting I found out that the surface of all parts where made very rough and before I could start painting it had to be sanded very well. I also had to straighten out some sheet metal parts because they very distorted. The right door also show some kind of dent and will need to be repaired.
The same hold for the left door because the lower part of the door has been replace completely<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the sand blasting I also found two parts which show holes through the metal which are in need to be welded before they can be painted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All parts are, as mentioned before, sanded and painted in 2K Epoxy primer, before they are painted in the correct color;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
