Hi, Steve
According to the manual, the spats are epoxy. Van's suggests sanding with
400, then 600 grit
"wet or dry " paper. I would add to that - use warm water with a spot of
dish washing detergent (not too much, otherwise the paper won't sand). This
serves to lubricate the paper, and also clean away the mold release wax. If
you sand through your paint, then wash that area off with soapy water, and
rinse well with clean. DO NOT use solvents and the likes. They just spread
the wax around, if there is any left. Then use an epoxy primer. You should
be able to use the high solids primer after that, or simply use epoxy putty
to fill pinholes. I wish you well - from a former 'panel-beater'.

Scott,
I beg to differ. EAA WAS about experimental aircraft. EAA is now about
sport aviation, as you may notice when you note the various divisions, one
for aerobatics, one for antiques and classics, etc. and remember the name
of EAA's magazine.
The roster of our EAA chapter in Mulino, Oregon, shows about 56 members,
with about 27 projects or completed homebuilts, and an equal number of
factory built planes. Those who choose to fly factory built planes are
just as active and contribute just as much as the homebuilders--more,
perhaps, as several of the factory built planes are 4 place planes and flew
the majority of young eagles last year.
When the Bonanza pilots want to arrive at Oshkosh together, I say, more
power to them, it just makes the party bigger!
