I was away but I am back and painting
Let me tell you about the door prep 1) disassemble the door 2) sand down the door with 36 grit paper 3) hammer out and fill in any dents 4) sand the door with 80 grit paper after the filler dries 5) put glaze on to fix any problem spots 6) sand the glaze 7) glaze again any low spots 8) sand those spots 9) now you can put 3 coats of primer 10) now you put on a guide coat 11) then you sand off the guide coat with 240, 460, or (if you have a lot of time )1000 grit paper 12) you are ready to paint 13) now you lay down 3 coats of base paint 14) let it dry and the you lay down 3 coats of clear. then you have to sand more but we will stop for another day because I am tired.

It has been a while
Its has been months since I worked on the car. My wife for Fathers Day bought me a compressor . It seems like I was going to the dentist every time I thought about going out to work on the car. I just did not have any desire to work on it. But all that aside, I signed up for another auto body class and it meets tonight. So wish me luck and pray I find the will to carry on with the project .
