    EPW115 is waterborne primer that can go over bare metal, cut thru’s, not stripjobs, and bodywork.
    Anyone have any feedback on this product?

    I have looked into the primers you are talking about, Rep said he was going to get me some to try, he also told me they weren’t as fast a the solvent primers in PPG’s water line, which is 12 minutes with a heat lamp. I know you have to put the blowers on it to dry and Yes as weird as it seems it is a DTM waterborne primer.

    I got to demo some it was ok drys fast with blowers and after the final coat let sit for 30 min it doesn’t block good but sands good with a DA so I would stick to solvent primer but pretty cool for a water primer that’s DTM

    My rep wanted to put some in, i said no after painter123 told me the same thing as paintman said. Plus my guys would totally screw it up, hell they”re barely have paitiance to let it sit for 3 mins before the next coat.

    We’ve been using the aquabase primer ( which I think is the same) on everything for two months now and I think it works pretty good.
    It does ball up on the paper a little when dry blocking, so one of my helpers likes it and two dont . One thing I really like is that it doesn’t shrink up. I think that’s because you can’t abuse it without it mud cracking, so it forces them to let flash off.

    Thanks for the input.
    I think I will give it a try,atleast for some small stuff.
