Step 2First Step! Cleaning and Prepping!
I have a few skate decks lying around, two are old school, two are too expensive to destroy, so i went for the board out back, the one my friends and I use to jump of the deck in the summer.
It was "hella" dirty, water damaged, and covered in snow.
First I ran it under a warm bath to melt any snow/ice and remove large debris.
Secondly, I took a coarse brush and removed the finer dirt.
I then used a combination of bleach, industrial de-greaser, floor stripper, and plain hand soap -_- to remove any guck.
IT IS IMPORTANT TO WEAR HAND AND EYE PROTECTION WHILE USING HARSH CHEMICALS, don't take my video as an example. Please don't model after my stupidity.
Lastly, Once dried, I using a combination of sandpapers, a belt sander and a detail sander, to make a nice, smooth, clean surface to work with.
Now the board is prepped for assembly.
