Do I need to blast or sand off all the old paint? What would be the impact if I only sanded and primed over existing paint? can I kill the micro rust dots without completely removing everything? I have a "shake and spray primer"(it can be returned); will it be adequate under a 2K or 1K paint?
Current conditions of car and body parts:
> car is on jacks; weld repairs are completed.
> removable parts have all been removed
> The underside and engine have been cleaned and painted.
> some fiberglass and weld repairs have been completed
> windows have been removed, a little rust repair is needed.
> car was repainted maybe once or twice in 50 years. 25 years since last painting
> old paint is mostly good; some micro size rust dots scattered throughout.
> seams were rusty have been wire wheeled to bare metal.
> The front parts (Grill, hood, fenders) have many small rust pits from road blast and beach travels (This is probably the worst of everything).
> about 6 small dents still need to be worked out.
> still haven't started on the camper shell (Rust in the cracks under sealer, som front edge damage under gaskets, and a CB hole to weld repair, rusty edges.)
I plan to make a homemade booth.
Advise? Please estimate quality versus suggested scope of effort.
