long strips are doable, but have to be done properly. Depending in the position, panel warping is a major concern, the same with deseaming. Backing plates may be considered, again, depending on position, for strength issues! Pernonally I would avoid doing long strips and do smaller sections at a time. I am deseaming my "grunt", a necessary evil I am afraid (better to see it deseamed than on a scrap heap!), and to do just approx. 1 foot of deseaming (6 inches at a time!), takes at least 4 hours. Done properly takes a lot of time! The longer it will take, the more it will cost you! |

My Moke is like that, I got 2 angles bent up at 70° from 1.5mm zincseal, with 65mm flanges. One side is cut out but I won't get back to it until next year. |
