    Trying to find the motivation to do this amount of work is extremely stressful… and knowing that your hand is on this project makes the outcome that much more worth it. All the best to you bud! Keep it going!

    I used to have an '89 CRX Si back in the '90s and seeing your hard work and attention to detail with your projects have been very interesting for me! Keep up the great work and I look forward to your next video.

    Seth work your magic on my 88crx si.
    If you restored crx's for a living.,I'd for sure would take my crx to you. And I wouldn't care how long it would take to restore. Because it would come out like it left the Honda Factory 🏭. Keep up the good work!

    Nice, gotta be a great feeling getting a huge part of bodywork out of the way. I know the feeling of losing motivation, that's why i haven't touched my DA since june lol. Seeing those 92-93 hubcaps reminded me that i completely forgot to see what side the 2 i have are also lol

      Seeing all that work in front of you is definitely discouraging. But once you step over it, excitement for the finished product.

  • @qtfsniper
    @qtfsniper 2 года назад +1

    This is going to come out so good, I know that feeling all too well with the motivation but once you get working on it the time starts to fly and you start to enjoy it again. Do you not have to worry about any overspray around the rest of the stuff in the garage or are the particles dry by the time they land on anything and it's just dust at that point?

    Hello Seth,
    Glad to see the motivation coming back! 😉
    the fully equipped door must have been heavy, right? 😱
    For safety, I prefer to undress it when it is still mounted on the chassis.
    Another great video, with cool musics.
    My next video will be on the ignition distributor...you will have to be patient 😄

    • @crxseth

    Also i LOL'd when i saw the glass cleaner, Ive been doing that for years.

    I get it, body work is so tedious! That’s why these body shops want 10 k to paint a CRX.

  • @bradleysmith6154
    @bradleysmith6154 2 года назад

    Hi Seth
    First off I have to say for someone who doesn't do body and paint every day you are doing a amazing job I'm impressed. Now I have to tell you the reason you're seeing shrinkage is because you're using Nason products. I'm telling you 100% I dont care how long you let that stuff sit it will always do it. There sealer and epoxy primer is not good there is a reason it half the price of there competitors. It's not worth it you no how hard you have worked it get to the point of primer and sealer please trust me on this 25 years in the business I would never use that company's product for sealing or epoxy priming. They do have decent base paint for repairs or someone on a budget but that's it. Look at it this way the money you have save doing all this work yourself put it into good products. If your selling the car well then it will be someone else problem. But Crx are unicorns and we need to treat the as such.

    • @crxseth
      @crxseth  2 года назад

      Thanks for the info. You are probably right. Next time I do this, I’ll probably step up the product line. I guess you get what you pay for most of the time. It’s nothing a little wet sanding and buffing can’t fix in the future. Guess I better lay the clear to it!

      I got the title but I haven’t registered it because it needs an inspection. I would have gotten registration but I didn’t know the wiper fuse was missing on my first inspection, so I didn’t get it. Next time the car will look nearly new and should be no issue.
