    First time through on a moderately beat up Seawitch, enjoying figuring it out as I go. Few questions...Wood prep first.

    1. Options for filling shallow dents and scratches (deeper than you'd want to sand) other than Bondo? Managing but not the easiest stuff to work with. Saw one or two guys mention drywall mud, which seems reasonable and is very workable, but not sure how it holds up.

    2. Splitting/lifting veneer edges? It's kinda tapered at the bottom of the cab so it's thin there, afraid I'm gonna get more no matter what I do. Was thinking titebond to fix it and then a little bondo over?

    3. Planning to put a light coat inside for simplicity. Simplest way to clean up in there before a light prime and paint? Not worried about great results inside, but it's pretty filthy. Rest got cleaned with stripper and sandpaper
