Paint prep advice needed

Need a bit of advice from the gurus here.

I've been prepping my car for the paint booth. In a couple places I sanded through my high build urethane primer exposing a little metal or filler.

What would be the best approach to deal with these spots? Can I just hit them with sealer before I color coat or should I seal them, let them dry, and then wet sand again before color coat?

Bobby: if you are using a good sealer that should be enough, but double check on the areas where the filler is exposed, sometimes it also exposes pinholes,or just mix enough primer with a little bit of reducer and lightly cover them.
