So this is what it looks like. I guess I missed that tiny hole, or a chunk of putty came off when I was sanding???

Is the area you placed in too high (sand more) or too low (add filler)? Remember you should be samding before amd after applying fillers and primer to have a better bond and finish.

I did sand before and after the filler, and even sanded it down more after the gray primer. |

Sanded down with 320 grit, then when it was near the roof line, sanded down with 800, then 1500, then 2000, and finished with toothpaste.
Edit: I should clarify that's what I did prior to spraying the gray primer, and again before the white primer. Last edited by Kaotic Lazagna; 03-08-2021 at 06:17 AM. |

Did the alternator catch on the frame when you hoisted it out?
Don't think the belts line up now.
