Mixing paint questions

[hugger6933]

Epoxy primer? usually flashes when it stops shining[wet] it starts turning dull it is drying and you can spry you next coat just dont get in too big of a hurry spraying small spot cause you will end up stacking the wet primer on wet primer then when you think you good to go it starts to run. But thats more of a cooler time thing you should be ok this time of year just take your time you will be fine. The mixing cups are meant to be disposable or rinse them out use them to hold screws and clips or whatnot. Strainers are a needed thing cause if you dont you will get a booger to either stop up a nozzle or better yet spit out on your slick primer and make more sanding for you. By the way, there is always more sanding to do. I prime some spots sometimes the size of a quarter or so and I try my best just to mix up a very small amount to of course keep down wastes and costs its just a thing you will get more comfortable after more mixing and spraying. I have sprayed hundreds of gallons of primers and paints over the past 35 plus years I have done this. Jim
