Hello, first time posting here.
Im working on painting my aluminum wheels, i have sprayed primer and filler then wet sanded.
While wet sanding I somehow managed to sand throught the filler on to the bare aluminum on some small spots. Should I just paint over? or mask of the whell and aply filler again on the bare metal?
thanks in advance

does it feel like it needs to be filled? if so refill, if its smooth and the way you want it then just spot prime and sand it smooth, then go to your color. not knowing the products your using, priming to seal the broken edges is a good thing.
