      Dave - which of the Stewart primers are you using? I have the alodine powder and was planning to alodine to save weight on the LSA but really don't like the idea of handling and disposing of the stuff. The EkoPrime has the advantage of use what you need and no mixing but I am wondering if it provides as good of corrosion resistance as the EkoPoxy.

          Dave, I wanted to ask how you're liking ekoprime? I stumbled across it and I might go that route. What steps did you take to prep the aluminum?

            I really like it. It's super easy to shoot and clean up is a breeze. I use the ekoetch to prep the metal and give it a good scrubbing with a red scotch bright pad and I'm ready to paint. I'm totally satisfied.
