Subject:Epoxy Primer or Just Etching Primer? (panel reseal)
From:neil n

Hi all.

Discovery of a failed seam seal has forced to work under a small tarp
with short windows of better weather opportunities. Dern rain!  (yes I
know; boo hoo.    ;^)

Seam is treated with rust converter. I sprayed 2 coats of etching primer.

Would like to seal primer with a coat of single stage soon before
applying sealant (urethane type).

Is a coat of epoxy primer at this point, really that crucial? What
benefit(s) does it provide?

Much thanks,

Neil.
