It was pretty beat up but I got her straight today. Here are the tools of choice, a longboard, a straight edge and a hand pad. If your thinking about using a DA to do this don't waste your time. If you want it straight it is going to require doing it by hand.

After sanding the top of the bed I sprayed some black lacquer paint on and then hit it with 320 on the long board. If you see black still on after sanding that means you have a low spot.

Just a little bit of black left, so minor that once it is primed and block sanded it will go away.

So with the topside done I started on the lower side. I'm hoping that this is the final coat of bondo. I have used about 2 quarts of bondo on this side of the bed and probably have a quart of sanding dust on the ground. It is a lot thinner than what the previous guy had done to it.
