I'd go with transtar. no lacquer primer! <br /> here's the transtar web site. <a href="http://www.costplustools.com/store/list_products/index.phtml?start_value=16&category_id=1008219&sales_volume=&sales_dollar=&search_desc=&product_number=" target="_blank">http://www.costplustools.com/store/list_products/index.phtml?start_value=16&category_id=1008219&sales_volume=&sales_dollar=&search_desc=&product_number=</a> <br />they have sealer that goes over bare metal (epoxy). I'm comfortable with an etch primer and a 2k urethane HS primer for blocking. Then just shoot your single stage over it. Maybe ask your painter what he prefers?<br /> <br /> <small>[ August 06, 2007, 11:40 AM: Message edited by: gt from 650 ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>gt from 650</b> <br /><small>Member # 6717</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2007,7,6,11,44,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> this primer looks cool<br /><a href="http://www.costplustools.com/store-products-TRN6401-Transtar--2K-EZ-Sand-Acrylic-Urethane-Primer-Gray%2C--Gal_18474628.html" target="_blank">http://www.costplustools.com/store-products-TRN6401-Transtar--2K-EZ-Sand-Acrylic-Urethane-Primer-Gray%2C--Gal_18474628.html</a> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>gt from 650</b> <br /><small>Member # 6717</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2007,7,6,11,46,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> here's an etch on the same website<br /><a href="http://www.costplustools.com/store-products-UPO0776-U-Pol-Acid-8---1K-Etch-Primer%2C-1-Liter%2C-Gray_19107180.html" target="_blank">http://www.costplustools.com/store-products-UPO0776-U-Pol-Acid-8---1K-Etch-Primer%2C-1-Liter%2C-Gray_19107180.html</a> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>lky_3</b> <br /><small>Member # 1116</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2007,7,6,17,29,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Thank you sooo much for the info.
