From what I understand about paint prep, which is pretty minimal if we’re being honest 😂…if you’re shooting an etch primer, that little bit of “shadowing” isn’t going to cause any issues. And you should be shooting an etch primer over bare metal, anyway. I think the only exception is a sandblasted surface, which has a lot of “tooth”, and in that case you could use an epoxy primer instead, but typically you want to apply that immediately after blasting.
By prep I mean "prep". We all know I'm just going to spray this one black without etch primer. 😉 But I'm going over every surface with sand paper to get the paint to grab good.
I used etch primer on mine, @@slowshop. I used a SEM product in a can, followed up with Rustoleum (alkyd enamel) while the etch primer was still tacky. Case of 6 for about $120 did the whole car, and it has held up really well to being moved around so much.

Really like your channel. Unfortunately I don’t know much about paint, but it looks good to me.
Than you sir. 🍻
