I have a question on the final stages of bodywork I hope can be answered
in a number of ways. It has to do with the final appearance or getting
things finessed after applying primer. I have got the belly of my legacy
as close as I can in it being straight and I'm ready to apply the
primer. I'm using the DuPont URO-Prime. My question comes down to this.
If I begin blocking and find some minor scratches from sandpaper or low
spots, can they be filled with a glazing putty or AeroPoxy light? In
other words, is anything compatible as a final filler that can be
applied over the primer.

Another question has to do with some comments I read about the glass
weave showing through. Does this apply to carbon fiber as well? What
could I be doing now to alleviate this? I'm hoping for a great finish
and intend to paint my Legacy red. Any and all advice would be
appreciated.

So, far, the hardest part of body work is sanding and a lot of patience,
but I'm keen on learning the best tips and products that will make the
difference.

Thank you in advance,
Don Barnes
