First, thank you for making a product that allows the hobbyist to make body progress without a large air compressor. I used it this week and have some feedback. The epoxy primer is much more viscous than I was expecting. As a result, it doesn't fill in small blemishes. These days, high fill, sand-able primer is key to saving time. I used a power drill to stir the batch thoroughly, making it as thick as possible. Because it is viscous, you almost need a second person following behind with his own roller, to address runs or sags. It's quite easy to turn a perfectly straight panel into one that needs blocking because of new runs. Yes, I did linger and address runs as they happened, but some appear after you move on. The process makes rollers come apart -- even if the roller is high quality. I alternated between rollers provided, and ones I already own. To do an entire car, I had to use three different rollers because they disintegrated. In one case, the foam broke off completely where the inside rod ends. For a thicker material, I think a micro-slurry mix fills much better. It fills in small blemishes. It also does not eat rollers. It's very durable. The downside is that it's not easily sanded so it's harder to blend with uncoated portions of your panel. Also, I would stay away from the new "brown" micro-balloons. They clump too much, so you want the normal white ones.

This a awesome option for those who don't have all the equipment !

[@capocollect8861]

I just purchased this kit last week. I am in the middle of removing the original paint. I cant wait to use it! Thank you!

[@eastwoodco]

Thanks for your business! Be sure to share your progress and feedback with us. You can share pics of your project at [e-mail] We can't wait to see your project!

[@michaelm9621]

I'm new at this. Can I just sand my car clear coat down with 600 grit and then apply this product, paint and clear coat it? And I'm done.

[@paulfonte468]

I bought this , put 3 coats on my 1970 monte carlo just block the doors . Looks good got start on rest.

[@lehuadefiesta7986]

I purchased this and happy how it came out on my "vw bug", BUT the rollers were breaking apart and getting on my project. (Yes, measured correctly). I still have 4 fenders and a decklid to do and going to get foam rollers from Walmart. Thoughts welcomed!

[@jdwisdom9433]

In '72 I rolled on gray primer and white over tan top coat form "Standard Brand Paint" in Torrance, California for less than $50. It held its color until sold in '79 and got many compliments. So how come your primer cost an arm and a leg? Thanks, JD

[@mrrobotobrains]

1972....

[@peterscott2097]

Hope all is well .. How long do you have to wait before sanding the 2k aero epoxy primer in the Rattle can thanks

[@CR-pq8oe]

Hey Guys purchased a 2004 Dodge Ram 2500 w a Cummins. Dream truck. I was only going to do a cheap under carriage spray. Then I started watching your videos. As of right now I ended up do a complete renewal. Your products look amazing. So I decided to do everything in Eastwood. I’m starting with sanding entire under carriage and property undercoating to prevent rust. After I’m done with that. I have removed my truck bed and will sand to bare metal (hoping to get a contour). But it’s not in stock. Then I will do a complete paint job in Eastwood products. I need some options on what to do with painting. I already purchased. Everything I need and some for frame. Please let me know how I can contact one of you guys for your expert advice. I will post entire renewal on KZbin once done. Thanks

[@davidpatrick1813]

This almost what I need... I think ... I've never done it ... yet!

[@webbthomas9914]

How long after I put urethane on can I wait to paint base without sanding?

[@tonypointer7026]

Crazy roll on primer

[@michaelf6710]

A bit late to the party here - but given it’s a 2K, do you still need a quality respirator?

[@davidpatrick1813]

I have a 1990 G20 with a 2 foot tall fiberglass high top... not just the short high top but a good 2'. It is fiberglass and powdery on top and many surface cracks (maybe fibers) on the sides etc. Would I use these systems on that or is it only for metal body panels... and can I roll and/or brush (Ilike the roll ideas)

[@joepanico7834]

How many ounces would it take to do a 55 Pontiac chieftain 4 door and what color should I use?

[@karenhinkle4733]

Can you paint with a fire on in your garage for fumes

[@degingerninja]

is it bad that im going to top coat with a roller as well ?

[@jdwisdom9433]

The clear is best in my opinion. THANKS! jd

[@MrMrBigro]

Can this be use on fiber glass body like a tvr280I and can it be spray with a turbine sprayer ?

[@Sanjay-xk1uz]

Superb

[@caly5328]

Oh my God The car was ready for primer and you touched?!?!

[@safetysam6118]

does it smell and how long? If my garage is under the house will it stink the house out? Do I need a respirator?

[@pmp2559]

Not sure if it stinks but the bad stuff in hardener is bad I’d recommend wearing a charcoal respirator, I believe it’s what’s recommended they’re good for only 8 hours iirc

[@KS-yb2mn]

Hi bro what kind of paint are you using

[@F1r5o7g]

Beginner kit will it cover a o4 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT

[@eastwoodco]

Check out the webpage for coverage information. link in description!

[@wayneheffelfinger4377]

When prepping say a new steel fender with the black coating what should I use to scuff it up before applying epoxy primer??

[@eastwoodco]

Here are the Optiflow instructions. www.eastwood.com/images/pdf/p23135Q_OptiFlow_inst.pdf It can be applied right over any coating. For prep, 120>220>320. Scotchbrite pad in the hard-to-reach areas. 👍

[@tammywentzell502]

What grit should I use on the bare metal before I put the epoxy primer on?

[@tomikhaos7248]

How much of a car does it cover I have a 69 Chevelle and bought one gallon of it will it cover the whole car

[@eastwoodco]

That should be plenty for your 69 Chevelle. Another plus with rolling on is you get near 100% transfer efficiency.

[@grahamlumsden8471]

Are the products available in Canada

[@eastwoodco]

We do sell and ship to Canada.

[@srwven]

No isocyanates?

[@gary24752]

[@joaoguilhermedovallecavalc9666]

Gosto não se discute, mas sonho, nunca é tarde, tenho 63 anos, aposentado, vó pintar no rolinho, minha laterais, do meu pálio, na cor cinza, mesmo sabendo, que vai ficar, igual casca de laranja, mas meu desejo, até porque não pretendo vender meu carro.

[@rossmontani5557]

What kinda mil build per coat?

[@myronpriest4935]

1 mil I think he said

[@matthewfox3760]

Just put some hammertone paint on it and call it a one coat and it’s good...

[@TheJiujitsumaniac]

Gives you just a little PEEP.

[@speedtrapp219d2]

Pretty cool product but 600 bucks seems pretty high to me just saying

[@johnbrevard5966]

It bothers me SO BAD you wasted 2 paint sticks mixing... Shows me its all Smoke and Mirrors... Even purposely showing the camera person... C'mon and Get with it... Sorry, you have great products and ideas but never think a Jury is clueless
