Hello all,
I am restoring my grandfathers 1947 Ford 2N. I am in the process of taking everything apart now. I am going to do it right, sandblast the parts I can, we have a small cabinet sand blaster we use for motorcycle parts and my cousin built a cabinet that fits a motorcycle frame we will set up if we can find a place to put it. I am going to bring the frame to a local steel place to get it sandblasted. Other parts like the gas tank and things I am going to do electrolysis on to remove the rust I probably can't can't sandblast. Today I am going to just sand the hood because I can't do either to that.
What paint do you recommend? I was thinking Oil based brush on, my uncle has done several motorcycle frames with paint like that and its worked great.
Would the Ford colored oil based Majic stuff from Tractor Supply work? I was thinking of trying to track down some OEM style Ford paint but not sure if its really worth it.
Thanks in advance for any advice I can get!
