Nice job, You can keep doing what yer doing and end up with a nice job. But don't use
the air sander, hand sand it and you will end up with a much nicer job....
You might want to invest in a cleaner before you paint. Commonly just called a de-greaser, or silicon
wax cleaner it will remove stuff that can be left behind, even after sanding....
Use a file on the rust spots.... Don't laugh just yet....

For the rust spots you will have to either get it all off, or it will just come back. Especially
if you use that "rattle" brand paint. I have put 2 part paint over surface rust and it
takes a lot longer to come back, I think it seals the surface much better...... Harder..?
I don't know.... Better air seal....

Looks real good...

Today's car paint is much more friendly than the stuff I learned with. It's cleaner, don't smell
so much, and you won't be tasting it for weeks after yer done....

Centari was good but like a chemical plant. Dulux was pretty dam poisonous.... Now this
Base/Clear you can almost put in yer coffee and still live.... And the water base stuff they
use in Calif. you can use in a pinch as baby formula...... Big improvement over the decades...

I still use my old Sears HVHP gun.... Fogs the entire town.....
