Primer Spray Paint

[millertyme]

I have used the self etching primer for a while now and have had great
luck with it.  I have used a grinder for rust removal, but have had much
better results with the use of a sandblaster, then the self etching
right over the top...2 coats.
Let cure, sand and perform required repair.  I also use it for final
coat prior to top coating.  This saves the need to purchase 2 types.
Hope it helps
Brian

Hello,

  I am going to be doing some serious body work this winter on a Audi I
picked up.  Anyway, the car will be parked in the coveted garage all
winter while I work on the body.  What I need to know is what kind of
primer should I get my hands on.  I need something I can pickup local,
to expensive to get via UPS.

  I heard that an etching primer for bare metal, and a sandable/filler
primer for sanded, etc, areas, and that it should be high in "Zinc?" to
help stop the rust from coming back.  I would like to get the right type
of primer to minimize the onset of rust again on areas that I have
worked on.  Nothing worse then grinding the all the rust off, only to
have it come creeping back.

Anybody have any suggestions?  I live in Minneapolis (MN), so if you
could name off what store you think you found the stuff at, I can
probably find that store here.

When I am done, I will take it to a professional body shop and let them
do the painitng, since it is to expensive of a buy in.  And I will check
with the painter on the type of primer I am using to make sure that it
is ok with the type of paint he/she will be applying.


Thanks Everyone,
