Editing Epoxy primer

Epoxy primer/sealer is a non-porous finish that is typically be applied over bare steel, or the black iron phosphate coating that remains after "converting" rust. Body filler and high-build primers can be used on top of epoxy primer. Epoxy primer is a two-part mix, with a hardener that has to be added before spraying. ==Body filler and epoxy primer== Body filler and high-build primers can be used on top of epoxy primer. Although body filler is commonly applied to bare metal, applying epoxy primer before the filler adds adhesion, corrosion protection, and durability. ==Spray (rattle) can epoxy primer== Because epoxy primer must be mixed prior to spraying, it hasn't conventionally been available in a spray can. However, "aerosol 2-component epoxy primer" has recently been introduced by [Rubber-Seal http://rubber-seal.net]. To release the activator into the primer, a plunger is inserted into a stem on the bottom of the spray can. Product literature indicates that, once mixed, the cans remain at a usable viscosity for four days. ==Common epoxy primers==
