Reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So Easy I am a DIY person. I could not believe how easy it was to apply the Epoxy primer and Urethane primer with a roller. More importantly I was pleasantly surprised how great it looked. Made it so easy for preping for the base coat.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Roll-On Primer I love it. I only wish they had roll on top coat as well. I used the black and the gray and they both had a lot longer pot life than was described which I actually liked. It gave me a bit more working time

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I should have done it sooner!!! Very good quality!!! I have no experience and my car looks amazing… primer grabs and lays very smooth. I am very happy I decided to go this route. They answered and helped me with all my questions and issues I had… I highly recommend this product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love this high build primer! I built plugs and created fender flares for my 1964 Corvette. My wife is very sensitive to chemicals and I can’t spray primer in my garage. No worries as this Optiflow Epoxy primer is high quality, easy to use, and lays down flat. Once I finish the rear fenders, I’ll block the entire car and roll on the Urethane primer.

Can this product be tinted? if so how would you recommend..?

Asked by: BSTKR
Yes, epoxy primer can be tinted. Although, we do not have a recommendation based on ensuring that the tinting agent is compatible with the epoxy primer to maintain its properties. Eastwood recommends and supplies gray, white or black.
