High build primer
 
So i I think I'm ready for 2k primer. What I've done is media blasted then epoxy coated then body filled then I used glazing putty ,blocked it all. My question is when I block sand and use guild coat on the 2k do I respray the low spots? Assuming I will get down to the body filler on both sides of the low spot. Or do I add filler?

Depends on how low the low spots are...what type of glazing are you using?.....on mine I sprayed epoxy over my filler work then sprayed the high build...if it was really close I'd use evercoat metal glaze on mine...but only thin coats..

Ya good point I figured I would respray the bare spots . I think it's pretty flat but I guess I will know when I start sanding . So you added more filler in the lowes?

Yeah , I just skimmed the lows..but its important to get the panel as flat as possible before you ever start filling..

The proper steps are as follows:
1. hammer and dolly/welding/grinding - metal work in other words
2. epoxy primer
3. body filler
4. finishing putty
5. 2K high build primer
6. paint

Think of it this way; heavy coarse work first, then epoxy primer for corrosion resistance, then work your way up through finer and finer products until you get to paint.

Perhaps nsb has a better way of doing it?
