Reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Epoxy Primer over Etching Primer? The etching primer is an excellent product. The only draw back is that you can not apply epoxy primer over the etching primer.

Questions & Answers

Can this self etch primer be applied over body filler?

Asked by: Walton Dad 59
It can not. Self Etch primer must be applied first then filler if needed.

What size nozzle should be used and at what pressure?

Asked by: tbird55
A 1.4-1.5mm nozzle would work well and we recommend regulating your air pressure at a regulator attached to the bottom of your paint gun between 25-30psi.

Can this etching primer be sprayed over prepped paint and milled aluminum wheels? I want to paint my black and milled wheels all black with your 2k satin black wheel paint. 

Asked by: Ryan H
Self-Etching primer should be applied on bare metal only and should not go over existing paint.

The optiflow primer states: Once the primer is applied, not to expose the vehicle to moisture or humidity as it can be absorbed into the primer. Does self-etching primer absorb moisture easily? I need to drive the vehicle while its in primer.

Asked by: Sup74
This is Self Etching primer not Opti flow. Out of our Optiflow primers- we have 2 options: Urethane and Epoxy. Epoxy seals off from moisture but Urethane is a high build and will absorb moisture. However, neither primer should be exposed to moisture or humidity before it is fully cured.
