Re: need primer advice

Truck looks better already.

As far as going ahead and painting the only advice I have is get the body as straight as you possibly can before you do. Primer, because it is "flat" (no reflective properties) will hide imperfections, paint will NOT and will make all imperfections painfully, gutwrenchingly, obvious (I know from firsthand experience)

I hate block sanding and finish bodywork, but not as bad as an improperly prepared paint job. I would rather drive with the primer than get in a hurry to lay paint.

Good luck, Rg
