Now you got a ton of paint work to do like FAST. Don't leave it sit around bare, 48-72 hours is the max I like to let em sit bare like that. Most of the time I prime it same day. I know lot's of guys will say otherwise, The fact is, the sooner it's sealed, the sooner you should sleep well. Rust never sleeps. Great car and solid!!! Don't let it rust.

I need to wire wheel the rust out where the soda blaster didn't get it. I will get the primer on it in a week or 2

The soda doesn't remove rust from the pits so i need to address some areas in the trunk for rust , but the rest of it is awesome , plus there were no piles of media in the trailer when I got the car home, just a little baking soda dust, my dart still drips media every now and then

I can get 98% of it out before I even move the car into the garage. You could never do that with a shop compressor.
