I remove it on exterior side of panels, scuff it everywhere else. Some guys remove it everywhere but life is too short for me to do that…

This is covered in the Tech Manual. Go back and re-read the Tech Manual to familiarize yourself with using SPI Epoxy. If you don't have one you can access it on the SPI website.I'm going to shoot epoxy over EDP and can't remember if i talked to Barry or this was in another thread, use thinner or reducer on 6''-8'' area rub in circular motion check rag for any discoloration. If ok scuff with scotch bright pad or 320. I assume the different color pads are different coarse grades. Is 320 ruff enough for epoxy to bite into or should i drop down 1-2 grades ? Thanks

No 320 is not enough. What is acceptable? 80 grit DA or hand for bare steel. 180 grit DA or hand for existing surfaces.
That's a question for Barry more than me. I'll say this though. 80 and 180 refer to the initial application in order to ensure max adhesion. Nobody's saying it wont stick with finer grits but your adhesion will not be as good.Why is it okay to spray epoxy sealer over sanded 400 or higher grit sand scratches?
