I am rapidly moving to the point where I can paint my project car.
The front of the body is either pressed steel or Aluminium so no problem there. The rear of the car is aluminium sheet clad wooden form work again no problem. Problem is two wooden side rails which connect front & rear of the body. These wil show when the doors are open & need to be the same colour as the rest of the bodywork. Ideally I like them to have a good finish compatible with the metal components.
Do the spray painting experts on here think a thin skim of body filler suitably sanded down will be the way to go or can the suggest a better way. I could clad them in Aluminium sheet like the back parts but it would be a faff.
