I know it's been covered before; however, I can't seem to find it in the search. What is the correct method and finish used for the radiator core support so the light body colors do not show through the grill? Thank you!

Lower yoke, latch support bracket, & both side panels get a semi-gloss black; also the inner areas of the fenders. On the line, they were sprayed from underneath, apparently at about a 45-degree angle upwards. Upper yokes weren't painted but I've seen overspray on some. It was done quickly and not masked off in a manner that would leave "hard-lines". If you do a search here, lots of guys have posted pics.
