Primer on sand and fix imperpections....then sand again....gives you time to think and ponder the outcome

Better to do it right the first time!
Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!

FATnLOW, seems to me you should be pondering perfection, they'll turn out great...….just keep sanding ;)
Tighten it up til it strips, then back it off a quarter turn

Nice work on those handles.  You'll have to show us when you have them mounted.
