Brain fade so need help.
Installing new battery tray/support ......But trying to figure how I get paint everywhere as once in it blocks the surfaces in several places. Do I paint it then repaint or what.
I know this is simple but evading me.

weld through prime everything
weld the support in.
Tape off the top flanges of the support.
The top side is still open so you can paint inside the support.
Set the tray on top and line up the bolt hole.
Scribe the outer edge of the support flanges onto the tray.
Remove tray and using 1/2 masking tape, mask off from the scribe line inward on the tray.
Paint the tray bottom.
Place tray on support and spot weld around the edges.
Clean up welds and paint outer edges and top of tray
