Be careful with the primer If it rains on it the moisture will go through the primer and rust the body under the primer. Make sure you use the right primer. I may have the right hood coming up for sale soon.

Here is a shot of the hood. This photo of my coupe when I bought it

From what I know, primmer will seal paint, meaning keeping the bad stuff out.

On another note, OP, looks good, just could have spend a little more time and masked some stuff off....looks like you are making more work for yourself.
