no it is a 1.5mil protective, moisture proof primer, then after it you can use filler and high build/sandable.......that requires no reducer according to the PPG site.

what primer is on your truck?

Jason, i'm working on it now

Joe, it was 5 years ago. I know it was a budget primer. I didnt buy it because at the time there were 3 of us doing trucks and we kinda all bought different stuff/ materials and I ended up using 1/2gal of primer that someone else bought as a trade for some stuff I had at the time.

You will eventually get it straight.

joe231 · 02-27-2009, 11:59 PM

how it is now.....it isn't horrible, I think another coat and it will be good.
got a couple runs to sand first......

I havn't seen those holes before. Mine didn't have them. What was Scott doin? Playing with his pet box again?

joe231 · 02-28-2009, 12:21 AM

maybe the fumes have gone to his head

Musclerodz · 02-28-2009, 01:15 AM

Palace makes a better auto parts store than a paint supplier. I go there to get AC Delco parts as it is cheaper through them than from the dealer even with shop discount sometimes. There are some things I can show you that you don't have to buy all the expensive stuff to get a nice job. Sometimes though, it pays to get the good stuff up front. Call me anytime, no sense learning the hard way when I am a phone call or short drive away.

I don't remember the time frame exactly, but if you wait too long between coats, you should sand the whole area before coating again. I have the info sheet at the shop....I can look for you tomorrow if that will help.

Like I said before, I'm not an experienced painter and 7 days seems like a big window. Was that on a can or MSDS or just hearsay? I can't read the fine print on the side of the can any more. I'm in denial that I need reading glasses.

What's the details on it?

Hurry up and figure all of this paint stuff out. You and Scott won't have much time to get my cab done. I'm only gonna be there a week!

I'm not even gonna comment on the pic of Scott and his response...

joe231 · 02-28-2009, 12:54 PM

thanks guys,
Alan it is on the P sheet...after 7 days you have to scuff it and clean it before coating. Apparently it take 7 days for it to fully harden....so what do you do for a living?? I thought you worked in a paint shop, you just do the repair stuff and someone else paints? sorry, i'm nosey

I found some curved arms off of some old wheelchair lifts in our shop with a nice 90* radius, welded some smaller tube to the dolly and drilled holes. I just have it on the rear now, but I'm going to add the smaller tube to all 4 sides so I can tilt which ever direction...I have to give credit to Rokcrln, if i hadn't seen this who knows if the gears would have started turning.....

one week is lots of time, just pay my weekly salary and I will dedicate the whole time to your cab
