Where is the correct place for the body color to meet the undercoating on the rocker panels ?

I believe the body color should totally cover the rocker panel. The overspray should be on the undercarriage.

and in addition, light color cars originally had the pinch-weld blacked out at the factory.

Chuck, Laurie_S' mentor, stated that my pinch weld should also be black, but I have a CandyAppleRed car. What is your opinion on the color of the pinch weld?

yep, red cars are considered 'light color'

mostly, dark blues and black don't have the pinchweld blacked out.

it's real easy to do,,, get a spray bomb of semi-gloss black and use a big piece of cardboard to keep overspray from getting up on the car.

Does the black overspray get onto the light colored over spray?

 

[Guest]

yes it does... what you would see on a factory original car would be primer on the floorpans, then bodycolor overspray underneath and the black pinchweld overspray on top of that.
