yeah so you saw the turd in my new members thred

after 2 days of sanding down the grayish primer I had my friend mix up some primer and I got to spray second thing I have ever primed I happy how it turned out. If I had more time I would have preped it more but I didnt so I just sprayed. no body work yet to much stuff going on in the shop for my buddy to do it so her she is the day I baught her

me likey likey that look far better than it did before im guessing you didnt end up wet sanding and no painting isnt for everyone some people may hate me for saying so but i dont care there are certain people who have the eye and natural ability to do it and you have to know your stuff or your going to have a nasty chemical reaction and spraying paint is only 5 percent of the so called paint job the other 95 is in your prep work. since its in primer when you get ready to do body work i would suggest getting some dura blocks and a roll of 180 grit and sand in an XXXXXXXX pattern it will show your low and high spots and depending on how bad the spots are you'll i pick hammer to lightly peck the high spots done and for low spot remember when using body filler never apply it over sand scratches finer than 80 grit. i always put 36 or 40 grit scratches that way i know it sticks good.. another neat trick is to take some wax and grease remover and spray it on the panel your working on and it acts like a clear coat and you can stand back at different angles and see where your imperfections are... da** i just wrote an essay sorry if you need anymore help just hit me up
