With the projects that I have done in the past couple of years, I just clean up the sheet metal and the frame, prime and paint it. I have given no detail to the sheet metal preparation other than clean, prime and paint. So, I get out in the real world and start seeing things that people do and I find some "great" sheet metal paint jobs. The one I have going now, I want it to also be "great." So here is where I need advice and schooling. All of you have seen the rust pits in the sheet metal. I need to know how to cover them up. I looked for some 1/2 inch paint and did not find it :-) I want to get a good coat of epoxy or etching primer on the bare metal...then, I want to fill the pits before the final paint. There is where I am lost--somewhere between the good primer and the final paint. I need to know exactly how to cover and fill in the rust pit holes in the sheet metal! TW
