using it for years? I thought you were a beginner in this? ,Oh,wait, I found your post from few months back

Once again, take advice from people who have been doing it alot longer than you and know what works and how well it works ,

also your pictures don't lie, you have bondo feathered on top of crud, that car should have been blasted or atleast the areas that you covered up with filler, I can also bet that the rust holes on the leading edge of the roof were just covered up with filler ,not welded up,

I can't blame you ,cause you're just starting, but don't get all worked up ,when someone with over 20 years of real experience gives you advice or comments on your work.

Judging by pics in other thread, looks like you can colorsand and buff,I give you that ,I'd just hate to see slick paint job go to waste when all the rust and bubbles start coming thru
