Re: Primer for acrylic enamel paint?
I have used Nason Acrylic Enamel...the single stage that uses an 8:2:1 mixture of 8paint:2reducer:1hardener. I usually used Nason lacquer primer with it... but have also used epoxy primer. The Nason primers come in various high builds and I have had good luck with them...they sand well and I have used them on everything from wheels, to frames, to sheetmetal. One note of caution...I have had lacquer thinner lift bodywork if it can get under it and I have had both the lacquer primers and the acrylic enamel blister other people's paint and body work. I paid a company to sandblast and prime a frame for me and both the primer and the paint blistered their material and I ended up sandblasting the frame again and doing it myself. I would follow the recommendation to stay within a brand name rather than take a chance with compatibility. Nason is a whole lot less expensive than DuPont and I have had no problems with it holding up well.
