Wish our times matched up better, I'd love to meet up with you guys, but we can't leave until Thursday morning.

Re: Lithia MK III body

I think I've decided to pass.. The body is just too thin. I'm worried after putting a ton of work into it, someone will sit on the fender and snap it off!

Re: Lithia MK III body

Thanks Joe, will sanding with 80 grit remove the old metalflake? And you were right, thin body. Much lighter than my old Berrien Citation was.

Lithia MK III body

So I went and checked out the Lithia MK III (El Lobo?) that was posted on facebook earlier this week. Body is pretty rough. My biggest question is, the metalflake is completely exposed, the gelcoat around it has faded away, it feels like a pebble finish now. How would I go about prepping such a surf...
