bro sanding sucks but its veryyyy important I sanded my car down in 8 hours but I had the machine for 4 of them. Just make sure every hard to reach place is sanded or the primer wont stick and I hope u didnt just put primer on the molded lookin parts on the bumpers cuz ur supposed to use this other pre primer liquid that I forgot the name of(ill get it for you tomorrow) its gonna start to bubble and chip after a while so be carefull wit that. Other then that good luck wit the painting im almost done primering the whole thing but im also gonna do the doorsils and the spaces in between. get some pics quick!!
