Default Need help with car prep

im trying to prep my sc300 for paint and ive never done it before. its turning out ok so far but if there is someone that live close to saginaw , ftworth area that has knowledge in body repair i would like a second opinion. i can still feel some waves in it and dont know exactly how to fix that. if someone is willing to help me prep my car im low on cash but i have an safc or a gps both valued over 100 it just needs to be right before we spray cause its gonna be satin black mettallic and will show any defects. u can call me or contact me on here

Well if you feel over areas and there are waves then you either need to

1. Sand it down more to make it even
2. If sanding doesnt help you might need to bondo or fill it up then sand again till satisfied.
3. Prepping takes a long time and its how body shop makes most of there money.

Would help out but I am far as hell lol. Anyway just feel around the car. I am pretty sure some sanding will get rid of the waves though shouldnt be too bad just time consuming.
