Here it is after 3 coats of primer. Unfortunatly it has a few imperfections, but I'm sure they'll be gone once I sand it down. They just have to.

Thanks  I'm waiting for the primer to dry off, and then the sanding for the minor pinholes begins. Should be ready tommorow or so...

Now is when the glazing putty is useful. If you see any pinholes or deep scratches glaze them with the red spot putty now, then guide coat the whole panel with a very light mist coat of flat black primer before sanding. Nice job!

Just wanted to preface this by saying altimat did an amazing job on his LCD, rock on man!! However, I must disagree with the recommendation to use the red spot putty. Even though this will be inside and never be exposed to the elements, I can't say enough bad things about red spot putty. Go for the 2 part stuff. I've worked at an autobody supply business for 4 years now and I can't tell you how many times people have come in with a "done" car asking for advice on how to get rid of these "big, dark spots" in my paint. The problem with the single part spot putty is that it is lacquer based and never actually dries. It just keeps shrinking and shrinking, until you can see it through the topcoat. Again, may not be an issue here but thought i'd add something to the discussion.
