Rockwood: Paint issues solved

[Normspeed]

Grandadeo had this magazine at his place, and I thought I'd share this revolutionary product. As you can see, it is simple and cost effective. A lady dressed for kitchen duty can apply it to her vintage Plymouth without soiling her apron or donning a respirator. The secret's in the applicator, a powder puff, which comes with the product.

I see it comes in several colors, including maroon. I wonder, is this how David Maxwell got that nice finish on his sedan?

That might just fit Rockwood's budget!

But, is the world ready for Fred in the apron?

I would save your $3.95 and not buy this product. Looks like the company has packed up and left.

Adjust the size of the display as you see fit,

Back in high school, a friends brother drove a modified stock car at local dirt tracks. Our job was to paint the car after the ineviteble body damage or new panels were put on after the weekends fesivities. Paint was whatever was cheap, and method of application was natural sea sponge.

Always looked great from the stands for the practice laps under the lights.

after a few laps ont he clay they all looked pretty much the same. regardless of color. Plus the local tracks always made the slow qualifiers run the track in after the water truck made is passes. At the end of the season, I bet we had half of the track's dirt in the shops drive way, from power washing the accumulated dirt out of and off of the car.

I used tis powder puff paint on my dad 37 studabaker when I was 15, he thought I waxed it, the car was used on week ends only. wish I had it now.

I have actually heard of this before. I have been quite il this past 24 hours, sprayed primer under hood last night, and a shorttime later I beacme very ill.

I had been feeling sore and cahyall day, but painted anyway, but today I could hardly walk, my wife had to come home,I could not look after the kids, nor could I have driven them to my Mothers.

I am feeling sick as I write this, but am a bit better, have not eatan in 24 hours, don't feel hungry either.....Fred

Hey Fred, stay away from that primer for awhile and wear a mask & filter when painting. Take care and get better.

Dennis:(

TThnax Dennis, I do wear a respirator, while spraying and mixing. I use lacquer thinner most of the time for cleaning my guns, that sutff is brutal.

I must have been getting sick, and have some type of flu virus, should have a flu shot, since I work in a prison....
