My 72 Mach 1 paint & body-Primer work
#1
I got ahead of myself and posted pics of my paint first. here is the pictures of my primer work. I sanded the car first then did the body work then primed and blocked and then fixed what I missed. Re-primed and then blocked straight for the last time. Then sealed and finally painted. If you haven't guessed by now I am on an intimate basis with every square inch of the body panels as all sanding was done by hand. The final 3 stages of sanding the primer were done wet and dry and guide coat was used on the initial primer blocking and on the final stages.

Yes, well paint preparation has a way of doing that. It shows though in the final product. That and a few fingers rubbed raw.

Job well done!
