Spraying epoxy primer is not difficult but you will need some basic equipment - compressor putting out enough cfm for your gun, HVLP require more than the old siphon feed guns, HVLP have less overspray so use less material but siphon feeds work just fine and I still use my old ones sometimes; water separator and I also use an inline disposable filter right before the gun; respirator. As far as painting I would check with whoever is going to paint your car if they are OK with you doing the prep and primer as some will not want to paint over anyone elses prep work due to warrantying their work. Worst case is you epoxy it to prevent rust and they would strip it off when you bring it to them for painting.

Many thanks!

I will have to talk to my painter to see if he wouldn't mind if I shot the primer...

Thank you again!

Semper Fi,

Alright,

So she's up on the rotisserie. My goal is chassis repair: starting back to front.

Rear bumper support:


It looked like back-in-the-day, someone hooked a tow hook on the bumper support and ripped out the back end.
