I really like Advantage 325 Hi Build Primer, because it builds nicely and is really easy to sand.  Evercoat makes a budget filler that, honestly, is just as good as the stuff twice as expensive, called Z Grip.  I also use Evercoat kitty Hair for the buildup on doors.  Dura gold paper, and blocks.  Getting the paint from Auto Paint HQ. They are in St Louis area, which is only a few hours away for me.

Assuming I didn't miss something,  which, let's face it,  is possible,  it is ready for 400 grit wet sanding.

I feel your pain. My trunk lid was awful too, it took the most time by far.
Check your doors too, mine were sunken in through the middle area pretty bad.

I agree. Here's a Factory 5 that had just been painted when I was there. Very nice work.
