I'm just about ready, I bought the epoxy and 2k primer from SPI and a grabber blue Prospray single stage. After referencing "The Perfect Paint Job", I'm a little disappointed I won't be able to finish my painting in a full weekend but I guess I'd rather have quality than speed. The only part where I'm still confused is bodywork. I'll be painting my 1978 Yamaha XS750E that has a metal tank and two plastic side covers and a plastic cowl. I don't think the tank will need any bodywork done to it but the plastic parts will. I've got 3 3/8" holes in the seat cowl where an owner installed a tail light. Would these holes best be filled with fiberglass and glazing putty (I have Evercoat Polyester Glazing Putty) or just the glazing putty? What type of plastic are these UJMs, ABS? Being plastic, would I be able to do the bodywork before I epoxy for the first time or should I defiantly epoxy everything first? Thanks.
