I want to paint pickle's poptop before winter (and before leaves start
falling---I've gotta do this outside.)

I found this site:
http://www.vanagonauts.com/%5B75.1%5DRoof---Maintainence,-Painting135.htm

I'm just wondering if anybody has anything to add before I start buying
paint.  Like, are those paint choices the best way to go? and why do I need
more primer than paint?

I just went out and looked around my top.  I noticed that, while the bolts
on the backside are slotted for a flathead scredriver, the bolts on the
front aren't slotted for anything.  Is this normal?  Should I know anything
about removing the luggage rack?

Thanks very much for any help
