My car was sandblasted to bare metal inside and out. I used Eastwood After Blast.....supposed to be a cleaner and also etches with phosphoric acid. Will be priming with an epoxy primer.

The problem is now there is a chalky white residue in many areas that has to be scuffed off. This is going to be a much larger time committment than I anticipated.

According to Eastwood, I should be able to prime without any further prep, but obviously this will not work.

Any suggestions about removing the residue and prepping for primer?

That white stuff is from the acid. Had the same stuff on a Bug I used Jasco metal prep on. They say you can paint over it but your residue looks to be pretty extreme. I wiped the bug down with a damp rag and didn't get crazy removing every bit of it. Painted over it with epoxy primer and it stuck just fine.
