Dirct to metal fill primer
 
hello all, does anybody know of a direct to metal high build primer that comes in something other than grey? I'm gonna be driving around for a while like this so I was looking for red or something less boring than grey. Thanks in advance for any help.

You should be able to get your grey primer tinted

we used green on my sons Camaro if you are going directly to metal you should use etching primer.

I am not sure there is a "high build" primer that is direct to metal. I would check with a local paint supply store. Several high build primers can be tinted. I would use an etching primer first and then a primer filler but they are not made to with stand the weather without top coat.

Whatever color you find, if your going to run it for awhile without a top coat, make the final primer coat an epoxy primer, the others will absorb water.
