    I’m repainting the whole car. I’m gonna remove the front and rear bumpers. Front and rear lights will be removed also. Good masking job on the windows which will not be removed. Door jams not a problem since it will be sprayed the same color. I have a new door and front fender that will be sprayed off the car also. I have a few small dings and rust areas that need attention before the primer also.

    So after fixing dings, rust, etc. I should scuff entire car with either 180 or 240 and then use Epoxy primer? ( 2 coats) and then a sealer primer, then scuff the sealer primer with 180 again before applying paint? or is scuffing the sealer primer not necessary?

    Thanks for your time

    I’m guessing i can scuff it up with some 80 grit and then use Epoxy primer to achieve this goal?
