[VAC] Re: Polishing an Airstream

[lefty frizzell <leftyfrizzell@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is a question that pops up quite often, as people migrate on and
off the net.  I am the idiot that decided to "polish" a 31 footer...you
had best have plenty of time, plenty of money, and plenty of study.
There are going to be people that will tell you how easy it
is...baloney. Just stripping the clearcote alone took a lot of time and
effort.

You can figure 5 or 6 8+ hour days out in the sun or snow. The purchase
price of the equipment, the polishing compounds, and all the little
things you find to fix.  Probably the price of a rivet gun, and rivets.
Then, re-caulking where the caulk was removed...arghhhhhhhhh!

Next time, it goes to Oklahoma.
