REFLECTOR: smoothprime

[Brett Ferrell]

The better question for me is, for the folks would got fastbuild stuff from 
the factory - how much (if any) sanding and filling did you do to the 
factory supplied parts?  If you did clean up the fast-built parts, did you 
sand off the factory primer and start filling and smoothing from there?  If 
not, did you reprime those sections factory had primed or just fair in the 
join lines and prime those?
