Default Flex Additive

I am getting ready to paint my 77 what I need to know is do I need to use the flex additive when I apply the 2K primer to the eurothane bumpers or do I just use the flex additive with the base and clear coat?

What paint system are you going to use. A lot of guys don't bother with flex additives these days since the paint is somewhat flexible by itself. I won't be using any with the SPI epoxy, paint or clear as recommended by SPI.

I am primering it with the SPI 2K primer and using the matrix urethane base/clear coat. SPI dont make my factory color.

Dude,
This is the kind of question that Barry's cell phone number is for. I'd be calling him about flex in his 2K or post on the SPI user's forum.
