got it in primmer and looks good, no visible spots i could see after laying down 3 coats of thick primmer.... next step is to roll it out and prime all the other parts, and why those are setting up, all wet sand the Camaro

you won;t know for sure until you guide coat...... if it could be done by eye when wet no one would guide coat and block a car.

car is looking better already not a fan of the light blue that was on it.
