Hey guys first time post. I've been doing a ton of reading and have about got everything sorted out but I'm stumped.
I started with a bare metal truck that I sand blasted, then da'ed with 80 grit, sprayed two coats of spi epoxy, then laid body filler in troubled areas and sanded flat, today I sprayed two coats of evercoat feather fill g2 over everything. I plan on blocking it with 180-220 and then I'm a little lost. I see it as I have two options.
option 1
guide coat the poly primer, block with 180-220 then shoot a coat of 2k primer, block with 400-600 and then shoot a reduced coat of epoxy and spray my base with in a couple hrs.
option 2
guide coat the poly primer, block with 180-220 then shoot a coat of epoxy (reduced or unreduced?) let dry to the next day and wet sand with 600 and then proceed to spray base.
I'm spraying a metallic base so I'm nervous about leaving a coarse scratch and the metallic falling into the scratches.
I don't have any 2k primer right now and would really prefer to use spi 2k if that's the route I should go but I'm hoping to shoot color this week and I'm a 2 day ship time from spi so I need to order asap once I hear from you all.
Thanks in advance for the advise!
