Body filler tips

Post by boatbuilder »

Well I'm at the body filler stage of the restoration and looking for some tips as this is pretty new to me.
I'm using upol fanastic filler.
What grits of paper to sand with?
Wet or dry sanding?
How to get bodylines sanded straight?
I'm putting the filler on over epoxy primer after scuffing it up with 120.
