    I guess we were posting at the same time Pat.
    Ya thats what I was talkig about too. I have never painted a car that
    I first did not take down to bare metal just to see what was underneth.
    I have had lots of guys say don't take it down that far, and a few time I have regreted it. But in the long run I think it is worth it so I don't get any suprizes like rust popping up.
    I was just talking about small blocking scratches then I wet sand the primmer let it dry then wipe it down and paint.Though it's been a long time fo me doing a body.
    Thanks for all the good tips, please keep them comming.
    I need all the help I can get, I don't want to forget any good steps, I should do first.
