If your primer is nice and smooth (no orange peel etc) after painting dont sand it.
Sanding only makes dust which needs to removed 100% to then get a good paint finish

You will know you did good priming job when the surfice will fell smoth under your finger, it may not look perfect on sight but if it is smoth under your fingers than you will know it is OK.

Just sand the body with 1200 grit sandpaper. It will be just fine
