Well I looked around town for the eraser wheel. The only place that carries it Oreillys wants 35 for it. So I will be ordering that. I started with the huge metal badge on the tailgate. Well I lift up the rh bottom corner about 6 inches in a flake of paint comes off. Ohh shit what a way to start. I inspect and it has a bare spot about 2 x 2 inches. So apon further investigation I see that it has exfoliation under the paint in about 3 inches in either direction so that will make my touch up interesting.
Does anyone have anytips on how to touch up and fix the corrosion and bare spot. I debated just sanding down whats bare right now and painting. I can always just get another tail gate if it gets worse. ON Ck resto its only 75 without handles latches etc. How should I go about fixing the bare spot? I was thinking just sanding off the corrosion. Getting a piece of cardboard and cutting a hole the size of the spot and just doing it with some auto spray pain and clear coating it. Let me know though if anyone has better ideas.
