                        If you can see flaws before you paint you will most likely be able to see them after you paint. Spray your first coat very thin, or as Hatewall mentioned use a thin coat of primer, and if the sanding marks haven't disappeared it's time to get the sand paper out again.

                        you should prime before you paint.

                        Alright, i sanded out all the molding marks and then re-sanded then hull using 2000 grit sandpaper. Am I ready to paint the hull? I am using 2 cans of Tamiya Dull Red Spray paint. Of course i'll clean the hull first with alcohol.

                        i see very fine scratch marks make by the andpaper, will several layers of paint cover the flaw?
