There are many DIY uses for our black etch primer. It can be the main base for many automotive finishes , including single-stage urethanes, flats and engine paints. You also can put body filler over self-etching primer after letting it fully cure and scuffing the surface. This makes it a great pre-primer to fix imperfections before applying a high-build or urethane primer. For chassis and undercarriages, you might even simply put a clear coat or seam sealer over it and let the black color shine through. Our article about Where and When to Use Epoxy Primer has even more ideas and suggestions.

Eastwood offers both 16-oz. aerosol sprays and 1-gallon cans of our high-temp self-etching auto primer.
