Subject:Repairing paint flakes
From:Shawn Luft
Date:Mon, 28 Apr 2003 21:47:37 -0400

Hi,

My '86 westy appears to have been repainted at some point.  Actually, the
finish is quite nice, practically no rust.... except a small 2" x 2"
section under the windshield is 'flaking' off.... and if I clean the area,
it enlarges and 'flakes' some more.

How can I stop the 'flakes' from spreading, and what's a good way to fix
this?  I was thinking of using a putty to make the surface flush, then a
shot of primer and paint.

All help appreciated!  Thanks...

- Shawn.
