    Sanding primer

    I rolled my primer without any thinner and the results are not great to say the least. I sanded a spot with 120 and she is very smooth without any scratches in the primer that I can see. Should I wet sand with a lighter grit over top of the 120 or think she can just be shot? Thanks for any input.
