To get started I used a 1/4 sheet orbital sander. Now that the body work is 
done I've been doing a quick pass with 400 grit to rough up the surface and 
knock off any contaminants. I need a sheet of 600, the 400 is too rough for the 
last two coats. Hopefully my wife will be able to get to the store tomorrow.

Curt, I'm curious, what are you using to do the sanding?

IIRC the original 50-dollar-paint-job guy said that on his Corvair the
sander or buffer, I forget which, made a big difference, so he was
glad that he had a good one (which didn't count towards the $50, of
course).
