painting a bumper corner
Hi
I started painting a bumper corner and this is what I've done so far;
De-greased it
wet sanded it with 120
wet sanded it with 400
taped off the trim
painted it with several lite coats of primer filler
now what?
Do I sand before the top coat and between every coat? I know about several lite coats. I want this to look good but it doesn't have to be perfect. I have clear for it too. I just want it to hold up and I plan on waxing it after it drys.

usually after filler, and primer to smooth, i would spritz it with a speckeling of black spray paint to use as a guide coat for further wet sanding. by doing a light dusting of black spots and wet sanding, you will take off the black in all level areas and show where minor inperfections/dips are.
