for the body guys
I strip with 80 grit, then go over with a DA and 120. Metal repair gets done. Then it gets etching primer, and I bodywork over that before hitting it with high build and following with blocking.
Edit - adding my agreement to warning on reading labels and being very familiar with the product being used. Mixing, order of operations, and flash time in between coats are all crucial. Also - use the same brand start to finish.
