Paint/Primer Quandry

Generally, epoxy primer has a fairly short recoat period after which the manufacturer recommends sanding and the primer reapplied prior to topcoating. Each manufacturer may be different and I recommend you obtain the SW technical data sheet for the actual primer that was or will be used...and the one for the topcoat you will be using. You should be able to get them where you purchased the materials or from SW’s web site. For example, I use two epoxy primers; PPG DP40 and OMNI MP170. The DP40 requires topcoating after a 60 minute dry time minimum (at 70 deg F) and prior to one week, after which sanding and repriming is called for. The MP170 times for the same temperature are 30 minutes min and 72 hours maximum. I suspect that similar materials from SW will, in fact, be somewhat different...so you should get the appropriate data sheets for your materials in order to follow the specific instructions.

The advantage to epoxy primer (e Prime) is that it doesn't take days or weeks to cure, just a matter of several minutes to an hours depending on temp and humididty.

On the parts yet to prime and paint, get the parts ready to spray. Treat them with your Raz O Nil and let it dry according to instructions. When dry mix your paint and your primer. Spray the primer and then immediately spray your paint. It will be fine, I promise.
