I've been looking for a epoxy primer to paint my airframe with. Because I'm going to be painting in a makeshift booth on my RV pad I'm trying to find something that is less toxic and won't kill the neighbors dogs. Something water based so I can use my Graco airless sprayer would be awesome. I also want to brush the paint into the weld clusters to ensure good coverage. It was looking like I was stuck using Stewart's EkoPoxy till I found this stuff: http://www.paintdocs.com/docs/webPDF...prodno=B73A200
I don't know enough about paint to be able to tell much from the data sheets but it looks pretty awesome. Water based true epoxy, don't even need a respirator with adequate ventilation, can use a brush and my airless sprayer, and it is reasonably priced. Everything I've found on the internet indicates it is a great primer. Lots of guys using it on their boat exteriors and garage floors. Haven't been able to find much about its use on steel but since that is what it was designed for it should work good. Like any epoxy primer it needs a top coat so it doesn't yellow from UV exposure. There are several different products available but I'd likely go with the UV stable clear coat.
Any thoughts or experience with this stuff?
