Was the filler not there for a reason, ie to fill dents. Did you have to do a significant amount of repair to the bodywork to be able to do the exposed finish you wanted. It wasn't apparent from the posts that much in the way in dent repair was carried out. You documented the replacement sections for the corrosion, but I didn't see anything related to this, but may have missed it.
I haven't any experience of this sort of thing, but if the panel was damaged to the extent that it had plenty of filler on it, I would have thought it difficult to return it to a state that you would want to show off ?

You are correct in saying that there was no dent removal.
I'm working on the principle that the dents are character...
....bit of a dodgy idea. I'm not sure if it will work out yet.
The cold grey metal colour is very flat. It probably needs some colour.
We'll see.
