| | | | Joined: Apr 2003 Posts: 24 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: Apr 2003 Posts: 24 | I was just wondering if I could put metal glaze (to fill some pits in metal) over the primer I have already applied?The primer I used was RS1000 Etching primer, then RS3701 2k surfacer, all made by Western(made by Sherwin Williams). Or do I have to take it Back down to metal? TIA. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2001 Posts: 259 Member | | Member Joined: Mar 2001 Posts: 259 | That's what I use the Metal Glaze for......Minor imperfections. I had a few spots I had to use the metal glaze on at work and it took care of the problem. I've been working on a frame off rebuild of a 1965 GTO and it just went in the booth for it's second coat of primer. If it all sands good this next time it will be painted late next week.

You may want to talk to a paint rep to make sure it is compatible with what you are using.

It worked real well, sanded smooth and the fram looks like glass. Secret is the prep before putting it on.

Carry on!
