Picklex can be removed with a water wash and wipe, but I will make certain that I get a compatible epoxy primer. I know that etching primers are NOT compatible.
I am truly a first timer at all of this bodywork. I decided to do it myself because of the costs to farm it out with variable results from local shops, even those that come recommended. Been there, done that! Not gonna get taken twice.
I read the other threads and take notes, but before purchase, I'll probably ask questions about equipment and costs.
