Anyone using a waterborne primer that they like? I’ve tried Transtar and Urethane Supply. They take long to completely dry unlike 2k and I have had probs. with them rolling up on edge and not feathering. I would like to use them but so far, everytime I have it has cost me money in lost time having to reapply 2k.
They are only good for small little areas.. Only good if you are using them to fix a quick cut through and the car is in the booth and is ready to paint.. Other than that we dont use them..
I’ve only used the Glasurit ones and I’ve seen then shrink on me, didn’t like that…I should say my bodyfill shrunk, the primer did little to hold out against it. I like it to fill a feathered scratch or something small.
I used to use a Lechler one, in a similar way to Joe. A quick coat over any cut throughs, blow dry, then on with the base. The product was deemed suitable to be used as a high build – 3 coats, bake dry, then dry or wet sand, but personally I’d rather use a ‘proper’ 2K primer instead, as it just seemed too much like a modernised version of lacquer primer to me.
