The amount of welding I had done made it necessary to do some considerable filling and sanding. | |
In my efforts to get as good fitting as possible between the door and the wing I even cut up the rear wall of the wing to match the door better. | |
Not so bad if I may say it myself. Of course there were some other smaller dents in the doors and wings that needed some attention. | |
Lots of sanding creates a lot of dust, all over, which has to be cleaned before painting. | |
With some primer it starts to look quite good. | |

I chose to finish the paint of the door frames directly after the primer. | |
Also the front was completed without sanding before final finish. | |
For best possible finish the filler must be sanded smooth. To avoid sanding through the primer I tinted my first layer with some black pigment. This way I can see when I have sanded through the top layer of primer. |
|
Along the roof the surface was not very flat, but after some sanding the finish was good enough for me. | |
