    Here's a good first step - Block Sanding Kit 3 Sanders-2PSA paper Guide Coat Guide coat & block sand to ID low spots. If shallow (~1/16" or less) just fill with a good quality body filler and sand using blocks & 180 to 220 grit. Two coats of epoxy primer, block to check one last time for lows & highs, and a final prime coat for any sand throughs. Watch the video on the Eastwood site page attached for some basics.

    never try to fill one at a time. on a bed rail just glaze it front to back and bring it all down together.

    How do you get a $151 sale price to come up? When I click the link it says $189, you save $4.95... Today's Deals doesn't show it, either.
