[quote=charlescarlis]I'm going to spray, because I like to, have all the equipment (including respirators, etc.) and the results (for me) are way better and faster. I'd love to go to white, but it would be a giant etch-a-sketch!
I would not skip the primer. Just wouldn't. Use the Interlux Epoxy Primekote, because it'll seal up the fiberglass, which is actually a bit porous. You'll get way better adhesion on the top coat with less runs, etc. When you get the Primekote and you open the jar - it looks like and is the consistency of clay. I initially went back to return it thinking it was bad. But, no after stirring (still THICK), then mixing with the catalyst it sure enough reduced down to a sprayable mixture. Sprayed REALLY well through a standard HVLP/Harbor Freight gun w/1.4 tip.
With these more technical paints you really need to follow the directions exactly, as they will often times call for an induction period after mixing. Meaning, you mix in a container, let it sit for a minimum period of time so the chemical reaction gets started, then proceed to pour in gun and spray. If you do follow, the results are good.[/quote]
