yeah .. soda works great , but the water involved in the spraying is not a good choice .. If you must , walnut shells are your best bet , and the ONLY thing I would use .. but holy crap $$$$$$$$$$$$$ .. so mechanical stripping is my choice

I think Corey's well-passed that point with this job.

Hey Cory, Thanks for clearing that up for me, somehow forgot that the beds on the trekers were made of glass. Can't wait to see the truck finished, what an amazing job you've done sofar. Between your self and Greg I've gained motivation and a new respect for the work and patience it takes to do it right. Joe

so waiting for the uhpolstery guy to finish the carpet .. he was supose to be into day , to finish up ... but again , didnt show up .. ??? .. I dont get it !! he complains to me that he dosnt make any money doing uhpolstery , but yet I cant get anything done !
anyway .. while I was waiting for him to show up , I did some more sound deadining


and both done

I was "tapping" on the door skins before and after, what a huge differance ... before it was a tinney type " ting ting" and after .. it was a low tone "bomp bomp" , best I can discribe it .. I think it will make a very big differance , and i'm now really happy I did it
