ooooops, John is absolutely right. I should have looked at my "cans" of =
junk before writing such a treatise. I now realize how I made that =
mistake. I use to use PPG DP40 epoxy sealer, and an etching stuff prior =
to that (a yellow/greenie looking product). Somewhere along there, the =
guy I work with said you really didn't need to use the etching stuff =
anymore, as as the DP40 would be fine without it.
Then, to make matters worse "in my mind", I started using SEM and UPol =
"self etching primer" in spray cans, again on the advice of the same =
guy, when I would occassionaly sand through, or whatever, the epoxy =
sealer. My "guy" said that would be fine, and totally compatible with =
the DP40 type products (I now use a similar type product,made by TCP =
(which I believe is made by ValSpar, rather than the $$$$ PPG DP40, or =
even the PPG Omni line). Thus, somehow in the back recesses of the =
remnants of my withering brain, the two products somewhat merged and =
became "self-etching epoxy sealer". John is 100% correct, ain't no such =
animal. =20
What I will say, is that on the last 3 cars (well, 2 cars, one large =
truck) I have skipped the etching stage completely, and gone completely =
with the epoxy sealer, as the first step. Have not had one problem . . =
. again, on the advice of a respected auto body supplier person. Guess =
that is partially how I derived the "new (so new, it hasn't been =
invented yet!) product: self-etching epoxy sealer! Throw in the =
self-etching spray cans of primer, which was recommended to use on =
whatever bare metal areas might occur, and that completed my erroneous =
mental route.
The next time I attempt such a discourse, I think I best mosey up to my =
shop, and check the cans of stuff I'm talking about. =20

I've never heard of " self-etching, epoxy - catalytic sealer ". =
Always thought it was one or the other... Either an etch primer, or a =
epoxy, not both... What product is " self-etching, epoxy - catalytic =
sealer "? Google gives me nothing.
