Default Body painting

Is it OK to sand a body shell with a high grid sanding paper on the inside before painting ? If yes , should this always be done before painting ?

Are there realy no scratches visible after painting it ?

Thancks for info.

I've never tried sandpaper. I use some fine steel wool. Wash it out with warm water. Not a mark comes through after painting.
I always do this before I paint a body. Gives the paint something to hold on to.
Don't do the windows if you are not going to paint them.
Have fun
Paul.
