Body prep. . .

Going to attach the handle to the workmate to spray it.



The body had already been wood filled and had sanding sealer applied so all I needed to do was scuff the body before spraying the first coat, I used 1200 grit which was probably too fine grit but sort of did the job.



I masked the pickup and control plate cavities just so any over spray wouldn't go in, no real need to do this as any paint in there would matter that much but I saw it on another build so I did it anyway.



Finally I rubbed down the body after sanding with white spirit and a lint free cloth to remove any excess sanding dust so it didn't ruin the first coat.
