For the do it your selfers...I like to use this newly found epoxy primer in a spray can...I used it and it worked and sprayed just like a HVLP spray gun...adjustable spray pattern and the overspray is almost like a dry fall product...it falls and dries quickly..I give it a big thumbs up...Spray Max 2K epoxy primer..



This is the front of my car that I used the epoxy primer...like that white

 

All back in white now...3 and a half cans...I had five on hand...70 bucks worth of epoxy primer and a lot of work before it...That spray max stuff is the bomb..

 

Where did you buy the paint? I can't locate it here in Olympia WA.

 

Online..only....Autobodytoolmart...

Did you use spray can paint too? :s I've been looking into getting decent primer in a spray can, so this helps. I do have another question though...what's the difference between regular primer and "filler primer"? Is one just thicker and fills in better?

 

Nope to spray can paint...used the high dollar PPG DBC and HVLP spray gun..epoxy sticks to bare metal real good and helps to prevent rust...filler primer is just that...it fills and levels out imperfections...

 

Thanks for the tip.
Nice work. keep it up

 

Thats what Iam working on my car, (68 coronet 440) It is a lot of work and Iam to the point where Iam gonna do the primer tomorrow..Your car looks awsome I hope mine turns out like yours.

 

Epoxy in a spray bomb is pretty slick. I'm in the high performance coatings business, you should see some of the insane coatings I deal with. We have a product that is a Epoxy/Urethane in one product. the coolest thing is it has an infinite recoat window. come back 10-15 years and spray it back on with VERY minimum prep. no sanding the substrate.

 

Great stuff Once it is mixed it has a limited shelf life
