I sanded the frame down whit600 its as smooth as it can be and the og paint is showing clearly :smitten:
No issues whit the frame even the dropouts are perfect

to protect it from the rust of beeing sanded down to bare metal i put a grey primer on it exact the way kuwahara did whit the original e.t's
