Use glaze putty or 2k urethane primer?

So I got the cab in 2 costs of epoxy. Should I apply glaze to areas like this (top of cab in pic) or just 2-3 coats of my 2k urethane primer surfacer? Thanks

Glaze. Use the 2 part (ie with a hardener)

I would putty those. I use the Ever coat 2 part putty and it is great. You can use it any time from bare metal to scuffed clear. That is a super plus to me. It dries real fast this time of year you may not even get through wiping your spots with it before it hardens but that is a small price to pay to have it over filler in those little spots. you will find many places to use it after you start blocking your truck to get your body spots just right.

This is how I look at it, "don't ask the product to do too much". If you have stop and think about it, it's probably asking the product to do too much. You want the product to be able to handle things easily, the more you ask a product to do, the more likely it's going to fail.

Those pits are WAY too much for a urethane primer, a polyester primer, not so much as it's basically like spraying a skim coat of polyester putty.

Depending on where that is, it looks like it may be a candidate for polyester primer. Anywhere that spreading putty smoothly would be extra difficult like around letters on a tail gate for instance, polyester primer is perfect.
