Ok folks I have a question on skim filling. My Spitfire bonnet has got small dents in it (Well, so what I can hear you say, thats part and parcel of owning a Spit)......so I put a skim of filler over the whole bonnet, I gave it a light dusting of black spray paint and got to work with a block and sandpaper. I finished this off with my DA. The black spray showed me i had some dips so I then gave it a second skim of filler to fill in the dips, I gave the whole bonnet a skim not just the dips. Same routine again. Now I still have some small holes where some air got trapped (my fault, but I will get better...I promise) after sanding down and DA'ing. Finally I have got round to asking the all important question........... Is it ok to just fill in these small holes with filler and sand down or would i create a 'layering' problem. Do I have to do another skim over the whole bonnet a third time.? Would appreciate some help on this one please.
