Sealing and priming update + a question
Day 3 and I have been moving slow but progressing. Doors and deck lid are sealed and primed. car is 95% sealed but uhoh :eek: I ran out of dp on a holiday weekend. Does anyone know of maybe a national chain that carries this stuff that might be open monday? I really doubt that the paint supply place will be open. Other than this set back everything else has gone fairly smooth. I do have a few pin hole here and there that have appeared since I sealed the car and I will be putting some Evercoat on those tomorrow. According to Lars' paper the sealer is a good surface to put the filler on but I am a little worried about the sanding of it. I will keep everyone posted. Comments as always are welcome and appreciated:cheers:

Monday is memorial day, so I doubt anything will be open except your corner gas station. Even grocery stores will be closing early. Can you put it off for another week and start back on the weekend? What sealer are you using...what is the number after DP?

I am using DP50. I was able to get one coat over 95% of the car but still have the jams, wheel lips and the lower front valance bare.

Napa stores often have a paint dept. and are open Sundays.
Maybe even Memorial day.
While they don't have Dp they would have a similar product.
