working on a 62 c1 and it was dry stripped to the fiberglass and looks to be a good job, body has been rough sanded with 180 to get a good mechanical grip for the primer ,key stress cracks repaired ,, any recommendations on a spray on polyester filler primer for the corvette fiberglass prep ,, thanks in advance gmonde
Running a truck/bus body shop...you deal with fiberglass/SMC panels.. I am sure your paint jobber should have something to choose from....I hope.
BUT...Many thoughts and views on this subject.
I prefer to apply a gelcoat on a car like this.
Some feel that other products satisfy their needs.
I do not use this specific type..... but Slicksand is a worthy polyester primer. There are many made from some paint manufacturers....so...it depends on what you can get your hands on.
yes we work on a lot truck hoods, fiberglass bus panels mostly 5-10 year old stuff but they are not 50 year old body's and have the texture that this does ,,I have a gallon of feather fill g2 that I an going do some experimenting with before we go live ,, we will see

It should work out fine. And as you know...having all you repairs completed before you shoot it is what you wan to do.

FWIW, . I used both on my projects. But I'd stay away from Eckler Gelcoat whereby a wax layer rises to the surface. Evercoat
Gelcoat cures with a PVA layer that you spray on and comes off easily the next day with soap and water. My .02
