Incremental body and paint advise

Personally, I wouldn't use rattle can primer on something I cared about. If you have an air compressor, buy some epoxy primer from Southern Polyurethane to seal up you metal when you get the old paint sanded off. You can buy one of the cheap Harbor Freight purple spray guns to apply it with. Your plan of attack sounds good, but I personally would hesitate to use the rattle can primer. I am not a professional painter but experienced enough to do my own paint and body work. Maybe some of the pro painters like @67Dart440GT will chime in when they get a chance. Good luck with your project.

I think you said everything he needs to know sir! I agree on a cheap gun and some good epoxy.
