When I first got my car...the paint was terrible.
So...I started sanding down to primer to get it ready for a re-shoot.
I accidently went a little deep in some areas and discovered 2 layers of primer.
The red primer was over top of a grey primer (on bare metal).
The problem was...the grey primer had gotten wet...and rust had started.
The previous painter had just shot red primer over top of the bad layer...then top coated it.
If I had not found the rusty spots (looked like measels all over the car) I would have had it fall apart in no time at all.
Shows that previous owners can leave you with time bombs you don't expect to find!
