[/URL][/IMG] I've used SPI epoxy and Turbo primer. I am wondering about paint adhesion. The hood is wet sanded in 600 grit and already has a glass like appearance. Is the single stage paint going to stick with no problems? I am just a little concerned as it's been awhile since I have painted. I am trying to insert a picture. The picture was taken while wet. Thanks

 
600 grit is what I use all the time.
The wet look shows the water is sheeting rather than beading up and gives you an indicator of how the panel will look when buffed.
 
Would filler still attach or would I need to scuff up again. Some very small dents appeared that I could not see dry.
 
I forgot to mention also that I have noticed a very faint line in the primer when the hood is wet. Only visible when wet. A small dent in a couple spots. Not noticeable until wet. Can I simply re-spray some turbo primer over these areas to fill or do I need to use filler? Thanks
 
For filler you should scratch with 80 grit which should remove most of your primer.
If you see a line now, you will see a line later. If you see dents now, you will see dents later. Shoot more turbo and use a guide coat.
