So my car car has been a few colors for like a year now and its time for a change. My bumpers were held in with screws and I got some dents and dings don't worry I'll get the pics up. So this past weekend I decided to "primer" it and I don't have a clue on any thing I'm doing but I'm doing it. So far I blocked off my rear window not the back but that little one and I "primered" my front and rear bumper and my driver side rear quater panel. I dont know what sand paper to use how to paint I just got a vision and a hope. I hope... I'm doing this right! :lol:

Yes in deed. At first I was doing it by hand then with the 6 inch circle sand paper- scuffing. I got rid of all the rust and its one color. I got more body work to do.
