Please tell me I did not just mess up.

[ArAKern]

So I just shot 2 coats of Lechler epoxy primer on the bottom of the bus.

but only when cleaning up noticed I had used 00825 universal thinkers Is this going to be an issue...

Can you scratch it off with a screwdriver without effort?

 

[Burdekin]

Probably be fine I'd say.

 

[the snooper]

If it mixed OK I'd say it will probably be ok

 

[ArAKern]

Seems to mix up fine, will give it a scratch test once it has time to cure.

the thinners is just a means of conveying the paint on to the job and evaporates. i use standard celly on all sorts of paints without problems

Real nice roller frame - did you make it?

 

[ArAKern]

Yes the frame is homemade. Did not have the height to use a rotisserie. It's not ideal design , The plan was to make 2 complete rings.

 

[Barking Mat]

Nice project.

if you've used thinners instead of hardener then you'll have a problem, thats if its 29107 primer

I definitely used the correct hardener and at the right ratio

 

[charlysays]

It will be fine. Don't attempt to scratch it for a few weeks though depending how thick it went on.
If you look at the spec sheet for HB989 epoxy which is going to have very similar/ the same chemistry as lechler 29107, it says you can either use their standard 2k thinner or epoxy thinner. They wouldn't say that if it had any significant adverse effect on the paint film. Most paint manufacturers probably specify epoxy thinners only because it means selling more products.

Nice looking rebuild
