After review of the play, the previous body man thought he needed to apply self etch before the next coat of primer or sealer, that is a foul. The paintjob must be removed and repeated! Self etch counteracts the curing of other topcoats when not allowed to cure and is only needed where metal is showing.
@@darkartauto1511 it takes a bit of finess but it does work really well, quick and cheap! Your welcome and thank you for the kind words. Its why i share
I was gonna ask! Very cool. Love those old binders. Never clicked so fast when I saw it was an international. Cool trick too! I'll have to remember that if I run into a good situation for it. Sorta like how we take the letters off of the tow trucks when it's time to sell one. Heat gun and one of those eraser wheels works pretty good on vinyl letters that don't want to peel.
Try Berryman's Chemtool carb cleaner. Spray it on...let it sit about 30 seconds, hit it again....and then use a sharp putty knife. Peels off like butter.
After really studying it ive found the paint separates between a sealer and a gray primer. Both are smooth as glass. No sanding scratches vissible. Maybe the sealer was sprayed to thick, to soon? Not sure. Could even be incompatible products

You're lucky to have found a Scout with enough body left to work with.
Yeah being asked to repaint a scout is a scary proposition. This one is on the scout scale a 7. When it was originally “saved” it was like 2.8!
For those who are interested this truck is a 1970 with a 304 and a three speed. Stay tuned for some auto body witchcraft in this series.

@@Joseph_Hartmannthere is always a way and another way! My compressor is glad i knew that trick
i used an extra wide razorblade scraper on my car. it worked extremely well
In a pair of vice grips yes works great. The thick chisel gives alot more control because it wont catch

Im assuming no torch with this method haha
the body may have been sprayed with spray putty , thats why its so thick
