You DO know doing all these things during this season, you make all of us jealous that don't have the awesome So Cal weather!!!
Here is a pic of the settings (pretty sure I haven’t used it since welding on this truck). It wasn’t adjusted perfectly but it worked. Filling sheet metal holes is not too hard but it takes some practice.

I agree I wanted to paint the bare minimum but my friend took some liberty, and it turned out ok in the end.

I know right? It’s been unusually wet here this winter, seems like it’s rained 8 days out of 10 all year. I visited my brother in Cheyenne a couple weeks ago and was reminded quickly how good we have it out here.
