Ok, first let me get this out of the way....I am not now nor was I ever in a previous life, a mechanic !! And for what ever reason, I have now purchased and in the process of restoring a 74 Std Bug. That said,
I'm getting the car ready for a new paint job. I removed the two running boards (a whole other story) and moved on to the fenders. Both came off rather easy. Here's the question: On the underside of the fenders (wheelwell) there appears to be some sort of undercoating which is flaking off in big chunks.
Can I scrape/sand all this junk off and respray the undercoating ? What type of undercoating ? Before the new paint job I assume? Thanks for all the help, and brace yourselves now for more and more dumb questions to come !!!
