Triumph TR3- Parts Order and Skim Coat

Last Wednesday I paid for my fastener and grommet order ($111.00 and change). Yesterday (Saturday) I spent about 3 hours total in the garage. Por 15'd the inner panels of the rear valance, attached my re-fabricated patch panels (using rivets and the POR 15 as a binder to glue the panels together-I saw this done on a website)-covered the whole rear panel with POR15 then let it set up and applied a skim coat of filler (as per the POR 15 instructions). The rear valance looks much more finished now. Today I plan to spend a few hours doing the finish work on the valance and get it to the primer state..
