Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!

Can you post a pic or two of the areas you just patched, after the block and sanding please?
I am guessing you are using a self leveling filler primer like Slick Sand?

Sure, I meant to take some photos of that area as it turned out flawless.
I am using Dupont Corlar epoxy primer (part of the Imron family) on the viewable side of everything.
It is a super-stable, high-build primer. You need a gun with atleast a 1.4 tip to spray it. It takes awhile to dry & sands like cement, but the rep says (his opinion) it wont bite-in to the body filler over time. He sells it mostly to high-dollar restoration shops.

I blocked the front fenders for a 2nd time this week. I am getting closer to color! Just 3 more big things to work on, the hood, box, & tailgate....Probably will take the rest of the summer.
