Re: 57 Truck build

wet sanding really helps if using a hard primer or one that gums up the paper fast. just remember to chNGE THE WATER lot and especially when you change grit so you don't pick up grit from the bucket. a hand pump sprayer works well too but can fatigue the pump hand pretty fast if doing an all nighter. I use an office eraser for the small corners and areas where a normal block doesn't fit, they can be cut or profile shped as needed. I have a set of dura block sanders with different shapes that work really well. I also have a long board made from a piece of 3 4 plywood for the long flats, it doesn't conform to the slow shapes so those parts come out razer straight.
