6.  I primed mine, and after 2 coats of primer i still can see scratches, What can I do??


Your Answer:  C.  Keep applying primer coat until the scratches dissapear.

That is not correct.  You only want to apply the recommended coat.  Usually 2 to 3 coats.  Too many coat may cause sand scratch swelling , solvent popping, and other problems.

Here is how I answered the question: Go ahead and block it out and re-prime.  If the scratches are bad after priming you can also use glaze putty after sanded. Be sure to use guide coat before blocking. This will help identify your scratches and lows. Sometimes it take a few prime block and sands to get it right.
