[QUOTE="Mojavekid18, post: 128173, member: 815"] Any rust that need's welded? Do that first. If not sand the whole car with 220 and fill in any imperfections with putty and then sand down and add again as needed until perfect. Then lay primer. Then sand with 320 wipe with cheesecloth and shoot basecoat. I am no "pro" at all when it comes to bodywork, but a guy i work with used to own his own bodyshop and i was talking to him about painting my truck this summer and this is what he told me. I did end up painting the roof of my truck like this and it worked out great, my only mistake was i used 80 grit to knock the filler down and i didn't do enough 220 afterwards to get rid of some of the scuffs. :thumb: [/QUOTE]
