    mentioned earlier was stitching an X to help with serious oil canning, when this is done should you weld the x while the metal is depressed down, or while it is popped out and continue trying to work with it, and do you grind the X away afterwards or wipe mud right over it?

    what is kitty hair ? and mentioned earlier about stitching an X when serious oil canning occurs, would you stitch the x while the metal is depressed down or while it is popped out? and would you grind the x away afterwards or wipe filler right over it?

    Also when priming, ive heard mixed answers in the shop but i normaly cover the most area with my first coat of primer then 2nd coat i stop a couple inches within the edge of the first coat and so on for every following coat,

    is that the proper way? vs. first coat smallest and every following coat overlapping the one b4 that?

    thanks! those are some things i will be trying, i have known to skim coat whole repair each wipe, but taking off more paint is something i will be trying ,normaly i only grind off just enough to weld studs, i did this because i thought it would be better so i could still see light and reflection in the surrounding paint as a reference to how straight the panel is , guide coating is something i will sometimes do on large repairs it just seems to me that once its all sanded off the panel is not necesarily straight so need to go by feel all the time anyway.
