Due to not having deep pockets I have decided to try to paint my plane. Since Smart Shoppers is close by and RocketBob likes the Kirker products I am leaning in that direction. I plan on using their Perfect Prime high build primer/surfacer and Kirker's recommedation is to use a self-etching primer on bare metal before using Perfect Prime. Kirker doesn't make a self etching primer currently so what would be a good product without breaking the bank for a gallon or so. I used the Napa 7220 while building components but don't see myself using spray cans on the whole plane. I have a cheap Craftsmen quart spray gun that I will be using with the primer.
