Yes you can spray Feather Fill over bare metal and top coat right over it with acrylic lacquer and I have done it. Here is what the add says in the Eastwood catalog. Feather Fill G2 is a sprayable polyester filler that is used over STEEL,aluminum,fiberglass,SMC,OEM finishes, body filler, and self etching primers. High solids,high build provides an excellent foundation for any paint system.

Back in 91 I sprayed a 30 AA truck with Feather Fill, right over bare metal and top coated it with Sherwin Williams acrylic lacquer. This truck was used mostly as a mascot that sat in front of my shop. I would drive the truck inside at closeing time but it spent most of ten years outside and the primer and finish held up quiet well.
