    how to fix this:

    1. wax and grease clean the area
    2. use a grinder (3" or 5") with 36 or 40 grit
    3. wipe down u and apply fiberglass filler not body filler yet.
    4. sand with 80 grit to knock down the fiberglass filler a bit but not to much
    5. wipe down and apply body filler or putty coat depends on how much you need sand it with 80 grit then to 120
    6. sand down with 220 grit (wet or dry) then primer it use epoxy or self etching if there is metal showing
    7. sand the primed area of panel down with 600 grit wet IMO (where you will spray base coat)
    8.NOTE: you are not suppose to blend clear. so sand off all the clear to the front of the A-pillar yes all the way to the A-pillar with 1200 with out blowing through the base coat you just want to knock off the clear
    9. tack down and spray the area with your base coat (just to cover the sealer area and a little more)
    10. tack down and spray 2 coats of clear over the whole panel (do not tack in between coats of clear)
