Default Primer

I have used PPG K-36 or K-38 primers over PPG-DP primer-sealer. This process might be an over kill, but the 1963 SWC lacquer finish received a large NCRS deduct for being too good. A friend just gave me two gallons of PPG NCP-270 primer. I plan on using it with DP on all the metal componets, but has anyone used it on fiberglass. If you have use it, how did you like the results and what was your process?

Thanks for any help!

Have a friend who does custom paint and uses that ncp270 for metal and glass. Also, if I recall correctly, reading taht John McGraw? noted that he used ncp-270 as it 'did it all' and simplified the requirement for different primers.
Check the MSD sheets for PPG.
