I think I'm in full agreement here...It's only a 5 month season at best up here so I want to get 'er wet and shake 'er out...
I have a buddy that can do the blasting and I have indoor work space to "do it right" when I have more time (and money) next fall...so that's the plan...
Now just need to come up with a plan to patch into what I have...
It's not quite as soft as Bondo, but it is a quite soft and powdery whatever it is...
I'm not grinding all that aggressively, just cleaning out the "divots"... like I said, you can see the red "top coat" in the bottom of the grooves on the lowest level..So that was done before I got there..
I just gotta fix it...
