Paint for Fiber glass trailer lid

[Dave Moore Jag MK2]

Looking for a recommendation for painting spraying a fiber glass trailer lid. Has some metal strengthening. Some small damage has been filled. I am not looking for a perfect show finish by any means. Would look for something with reasonable build to soften some of the imperfections. Would even go for a textured finish. Want a matt or low gloss finish. A single coat system would be best of course :-) I noted Manor Hi- Build in some other posts but there aren't any suppliers in Ireland :-( If that is a clear winner I can try overcoming the import restrictions.

I have a large compressor, masks suitable for cellulose ( I have classic cars) and I have a very basic air fed mask if I need to use a 2 k with isocyanates ( though I would rather avoid).

Cheers.

Dave

I should have this response on speed dial!

Epoxy primer is the stuff.

Yep, I used epoxy primer on the FG hardtop for my MGB. It has worked out well. Must have been on 10 years or more now.

I would need to top coat it to stop it going chalky though. I would default to cellulose since I am familiar with it but willing to try something else...
