Hey guys
Going to be trying my first paint job based using SPI epoxy primer 1:1. I think I was told not to scuff and apply onto and acid etched primer.
I dont really know what sort of paint is on my truck right now ....... looks and feels like a primer as its very coarse/matt - and doesnt feel "thick" to metal if that makes sense - but really no idea ..... but I also dont want to take down to bare metal - working in carport and my wife will kill me with teh mess im going to create anyway.
Someone at SPI mentioned doing something like rubbing paint thinner or somethng on it 10 times and posting pics of what came off ....... but I foget the specific details.
Anyone got a way for me to tell - also what is the issue with epoxy primer going over scuffed old acid etched primer (if it is)?
thanks
