Re: primer!
I used highbuild on mine, since I used a lower grit than I shoudl have. If you have scratches, then use high build to cover some (the smallest)

Re: primer!
since you have few dents, just use high build primer on body work area. Make sure you finish with 400 grit or higher, otherwise you will see scratches through the paint..by the way I painted my truck jet black in April and it came out really good.
good choice on the color

Re: primer!
the only time you need to use a epxoy/etching primer is when you are priming over bare metal. if their is paint or factory primer still attached then just use some high build.
