What type of aluminum sheet works best for body panels.  Want to try and swirl them.

3003 H14 swirls easily and polishes very well. Looks great clear PCed. Drawback is it's a bit softer than 4043 or 5052 and dings easier.

loyalty to the American people."

Thanks Masterfab.

Local yard has 3003 .125 thick $108 for a 4x8.  About half what I see online.  Is that a good price.

Anyone want to buy half a sheet?
