Polyester Hi-fill Primer Question
Giving my '70 Chevy C10 a full repaint, int and ext.
I'm using Eastwood's Contour Polyester Primer-Surfacer. Mostly over sanded OEM paint, but a few small spots of bondo and bare metal and a few new parts (hood, front fenders, tail gate) . https://www.eastwood.com/eastwood-co...-surfacer.html I used 2 gallons of primer, 2.5 tip, 20oz primer, 1oz hardener, 3 oz acetone, 80 degrees, 15% humidity. Sprayed on nice. But, I ran out of primer before giving everything its first coat. 2 questions a. will it hurt to give panels their second coat a week after the first coat dried? b. should I sand the first coat before applying the second coat of primer? |

Re: Polyester Hi-fill Primer Question
Follow the data page, if maximum recoat time is exceeded then you at least need to sand the overlap to finish the first coat.

Re: Polyester Hi-fill Primer Question
A week will be outside the re-coat window. I'd be sanding it wherever new material will cover the first application.
