Bare metal flares, the rest of the body is painted
So the question is for bare metal. Order options 1) epoxy primer, bondo, high fill primer, sealer, paint, clear OR 2) bondo, high fill primer, sealer, paint, clear What would you suggest? And, given my lack of a paint booth, I will have a paint shop do whatever stage I need to ensure no bugs land on the paint. I will paint and bodywork up till it must be a clean room process. I need some advice on the steps and order. Rich |

The dtm fillers are different than the old bondo products.
One of our guys had a rule of thumb. Etch primer over old metal and epoxy over new metal. |
