Its not primed bare metal after sand blasting and a little bit of body filler "kitty hair"

Primed it the other night and wet sanded. When I was sanding not sure if the sand paper bunched up or what but I had some deep scratches in the primer. Thinking I didnt let it dry long enough. So had to put a 2 more coats of primer last night. When the sun comes up (hopefully) I'm going to have the old lady put it out in it. Then some more wet sanding.
