I have been tring to get my Uncle to help me for the last month.He promised to help on the 67 Formula.He has painted cars for over 30 years and I would rather him do my primering and painting.But at this point I have gave up on him and I am going to do it myself.
I bought self etching primer and regular primer real good stuff according to my Uncle.My question is on the self etching primer how many coats should I apply?I was thinking 1 or 2 just enough to cover the metal since I will be going over it with the other primer.Can I do body work on top of the self etching primer?Is it ok to spray the self etching primer on and not apply the other primer for a few weeks or so?
I have primed and painted before a few times but it has been about 8 years.I like to doing my filling on top of primer and not bare metal, is this a good idea?I see most people put the filler right on top of the bare metal.
Any tips from the bodymen and painters here on FABO would be really helpfull.
Thank,Jim
