Alpha & Mr T - I am always impressed by range of car knowledge on here.
Dave & Scottie - Thanks for the feedback, I'll experiment using normal filler as well.
In your experience, does the high build primer/undercoat paint cover any pin holes?
Or does the surface have to be super smooth, with no imperfections, before "real" paint?
Swifty - Properly prepping for paint is all new to me too, so I certainly need the practise.
As I never really worried about dents and scratches when painting my MZ racers.

It is all relative...
With the rain chucking it down as I type, I'm not sure today will be very productive.
So I thought I'd add a quick "Before" & "After" comparison to cheer myself up.
As it is easy to get sucked into thinking about all the work that remains, without remembering the work that has been done.
This boot lid is turning into a very distinctive feature of my build, so it is well worth the time and effort involved.
Cheers, Paul.
