Autobody and paint tips?

[magoo_oner]

So im going to be fixing all the little door dings and dents on the wagon before I paint and have never done this before and want to give it a try myself I wana do most of the work my uncles guna help me spray it but the more I can complete on my own the better and more satisfied ill be with the end result so if any one can chime in with what products ill need for example bondo or some other filler seeler primer sanding etc

1. Take your time.
2. Make sure surfaces are clean and dust free before filler or primer.
3. Lots of little coats of Bondo seem to be better than one slab of it.
4. The actual painting time is about 15 minutes, the prep can be hundreds of hours.

fll them in with lightweight bondo,unlessyou get push them back out from the inside,and get a durablock sanding block,highbuild primer and block wetsand the crap out of it,you will be suprised how much wave comes out

Thanks ill try that I think two of the bigger ones I can push out from inside

What is exasperating is when there is not much stability in the metal around a big dent. It can be pushed out easily, but it will fall back in too. I have this problem on the bed of my El Camino.

when I was painting my car I found this site and these guys really helped out. There are some serious pros on the forum and they don't mind helping anyone out that listens..
