rant for today......I'm pissed
well....I got some unsettling news today.....most all the work I've done so far is for naught....I had finished up most of my bodywork after sandblasting and epoxy primer so today since we had some good weather with no rain I thought I'd go ahead and spray the highbuild primer...so off to the parts store I went...without a (real) auto paint store nearby that's about all we got. ...told the counter guy I needed a gal of high build primer...off to the back he goes and comes back and sets it on the counter....I look at it and its the same primer I've been spraying ...I tell him no I wanted high build...he says that is high build...I look at him funny and said it better not be..well it is..so i told him when I bought that primer I told them I wanted epoxy primer for dtm...and that primer is what they gave me...I argued with them then that it didn't say epoxy on it...we went round and round about it...they convinced me that's what I needed...remember ,, I'm not a painter and am fairly new to all this proper way of painting...so on this truck I was trying to do everything right...well now I've got sandblasted metal with highbuild primer directly on bare metal......
so by now im getting mad...the counter guy calls a body shop guy he knows and I talked to him...he says the paint will never stick..in about 3 yrs he says it'll start falling off...only thing I can do is go back to bare metal...argghhhhhh!!!!....there's 4 months and over $1k throwed up a wild hogs butt....needless to say I'm pissed...all the bodywork that was done , the lizardskin I sprayed,.primer ...everything....has come off..............did I mention I'm pissed?........I left the store VERY unhappy...they did say they'd cut me a break on my future supplies....lot of good that does now.....so yeah...its been a bad day....rant over...
