Skools out for winter, LSAT is done, Neon is fixed, no more excuses. Going to try and get the rough cut sanding done tomorrow. Then I'll spot prime as soon as Eric's Dad lets me come over. Then... 320 sanding, should go real quick, then... paint!!!

Should've knocked on wood. My hours tripled as soon as school ended... holiday season.

Anyhow, had a free day today. Got the windows out, the side view mirrors off, and finished block sanding and filling with glaze (gree stuff). Trying to decide now whether I should (or have the time) to spot prime then seal, or whether I should just reprime with epoxy primer and then topcoat the same day (no more sanding).

Anyone know the benefit to shooting reduced epoxy as opposed to straight epoxy?

Drying time. Reducers are especially important in cold weather. Also, a fast reducer would be better than a slow one.(Hot day)

You are moving right along with it. I finally got all fender seams finished today and smoothed out. im going to put some sealer on then get after all that primer work :judge:
My garage is friggn mess,looks like an explosion at the flour plant,i should have done this while it was still warm out :bang:

By reducer do mean thinner? What's a reducer? I don't know much about paint.

Reducer does the same thing as thinner.

Does the same thing or IS the same thing? In other words, if I go to X and buy a thinner, am I buying a reducer? Sorry to be so semantic, but just want to know.

I don't either. The only "P" word I know is primer.:smack:

They do the same thing,both thin the paint. But from what i understand (and i am no pro at this) the new paints/clear/primer use the reducer. I don't think you can use thinner in place of reducer,when reducer is called for.

sorry but that is all i know about it :huh: which aint much :o

Laquer uses thinner

Enamels use reducer

They are both "thinners", but "reducer" simply means a thinner compatible with alkaloids.
