<DIV><BR></DIV>Scott,

<DIV>I would highly recommend that you consult with the manufacturer of the
paint that you intend to use for your final color coat. Modern paints are
designed to work together as a system and each manufacturer will have their
own proprietary and tested processes and materials. I would stick to one
manufacturer's solvents, cleaners, thinners as well.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>All paint manufacturers that I know of will have some sort of etching or
epoxy material to be laid down first to seal the metal and lay a foundation
for an intermediate coating that can be sanded and used with glazes and
fillers and such to refine the surface to remove any minute imperfections.
This typically would be followed with a coat to seal this primer and provide
the base for the final color and clear coats. Here is a link to PPG's newer
systems as an example:</DIV>

<BLOCKQUOTE type="cite">At a risk of getting overwhelmed with opinions. Here
is my question. My MG is down to metal all rust and body is done.
Should I use an acrylic etching primer then a sandable primer.
