Welding prep

Got the drivers side floor pan all prepped with a wire wheel and some weld on primer on my 98’ Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS restoration project.

The soda blaster from harbor freight that you just stick s pickup into a bucket works really well if you have the air compressor to support it. It's been a real game changer for those hard to reach places.
For me it was some old carpet glue tucked up in the corners.

Does it get everywhere when you do it? I have a compressor that can support it, but can only work outdoors.

Not really, it falls pretty quick so you just have a pole around the work area

Good to know! I might pick one up for my next refinishing project. It would be really handy to be able to soda blast my parts.

It takes a lot of frustration out of the hobby for sure

You should have seen the prep I did to do the prep :D

Hahahah, I can hardly imagine the prep that went into prepping the preps.

That would be taking a nap. Needed some mental prep 😂

What are those lines running through? They don't look electrical

The ones on the door sill?

I didn't realize it was sped up at first and thought it was an air hammer combined die grinder, and I was down right confused
