I have been using a Prekote/ Sherwin Williams 2-part epoxy primer system on my RV-10 thus far. I'm thinking of changing primers to one of the easier rattle can methods (I think SW and Napa both have self-etching rattle can primers). My question is if I change primers in the middle of the project, how will these new primers react to the original 2-part epoxy primer already applied to some parts (especially where the 2 will come into direct contact)??? For example, the HS spars are done with the 2-part epoxy primer. The ribs will be done with the new rattle can primer. Any compatibility problems here??
Anybody got any other ideas??? The 2-part system works but it just takes too much prep and cleanup time.
I know that water based primers have been mentioned. Any thoughts/ideas there???
In your opinion, what is the best/easiest priming method for the most reasonable cost???
I don't want to start a priming war here, just getting some ideas.
TIA,
