I wouldn't take it down to bare metal. It will be easier to smooth out if you first work on the bad spots then sand the whole thing smooth, prime it, and then check for uneven areas. Talk to some folks at paint shops and pick their brains even if you decide to do it yourself. I think they'll tell you they generally don't strip to bare when repairing cars or bikes. Ed
Defiantly don't go down to the metal except where the dents are. Most primers don't stick to bare metal, you first need to spray an etching primer. I'd just sand it with 150 and do the bodywork, take your time and use a mixing stick as a block. Wrap your sandpaper around the stick.
