[DML] Re: regraining body panels

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Most of us do not have access to a pnuematic buffer. It can be done by
hand with #80 sandpaper and finished with a Scotch-Brite pad or
"Blending Pad" as the delorean venders refer to them. I have not found
a great susbstitute for it so you are best to get the blending pad
from a Delorean vender. The ones you get locally will be too fine and
not leave the proper finish. It is a long, hard, and tedious job by
hand but it CAN be done. The power tools just do it faster but if you
don't know what you are doing you can do a lot of damage fast too!
