Progress Primer

[Christmas Jones]

Hi


I'm in the process of restoring my car and need some advice regarding primer.

My ultimate plan is to use epoxy primer and then top coat. But I could do with a sacrificial progress primer that would protect areas that I've already worked until I'm ready to apply the epoxy primer.

This progress primer maybe stripped back or left and over coated over in areas that are difficult to reach.

Any advice or ideas would be really appreciated


Thanks

No primer will work as well as epoxy primer for that purpose. You can mix a little up and apply with a brush if you want.
You will need to scuff it up to apply more or primer filler or top coat.

Epoxy primer should go straight onto clean metal. Not on top of other primer. I would go epoxy (2 or 3 coats), fill and highbuild, then epoxy again.
