Europa-List: Fitting the Doors

Hi All

I am just about to tackle fitting the doors.

After reading the build manual 12 times and Bud's excellent 'Door Fitting' 
article
several times, I am pretty sure I know what I need to achieve.

However, a couple of questions before I set to it with the Permagrit block:
1.  What sort of gap am I trying to get between the door flange and the fuselage
recess? A mixing stick? or a bit more?
2.  Is it a good idea to slightly round off and lose the sharp edge off the 
inner
and outer edges of the door flange to prevent paint flaking and chipping?

Also, I am assuming that all door fitting is completed before fitting any door
seals.
