Wes We degreased the top, primed with an epoxy enamel primer, base coat, then clear coat.

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 -Wes
