Great price, lays down nicely. Most of all you shelf life, when you don't use the whole can, can be used for other projects at different times

I bought some used steel rims for my truck. I had the tires mounted and balanced, and then decided to repaint them because they looked horrible. Someone told me about epoxy primers and I found this product. It went on super easy and quick, it took me 2 days to do the inside and outside of all 4 rims, that time includes sanding, taping, spraying with prime, curing and then 3 coats of paint. I have had the truck through fields, gravel roads and early season snow and salt. So far the paint looks brand new after about 2 months. Product is a bit pricey, but worth it.

I don't know if it's a design or manufacturing issue. The nozzle stem inside the can was clogged and would not dispense the product. The can itself was unused and in good condition. The spray nozzle itself was clear. The can was full and had propellant. I needed to complete a repair of a windshield pinch weld, so I placed a rag over the can, punctured it to release the propellant, and mixed the product in a plastic container. Wound up brushing the epoxy mix onto the pinch weld. It worked for what I needed to do, but was a royal pia, as I had already masked off the vehicle as I was expecting to spray the epoxy paint as designed. Other reviewers have had success, but be aware you may not be so lucky to have a functional spray can.

Have used before, perfect for smaller projects. The cans I purchased sprayed out perfect, when they started to spit, they were empty. I think the chemistry that goes into this is amazing, A 2k epoxy primer in a spray can that doesn't have a pot life, who would have thought!

I really like this product for convenience and coverage. I have purchased it several time for individual car parts or small areas of a car body for repairs, and it seems to create a good, tough coat. On the down side, the product is relatively expensive and in use has two drawbacks that are worth noting: 1) if you're spraying something in bursts, where you're on and off the nozzle, the can tends to throw/dribble some random thick drops on the surface (this could be operator error, but I've not typically had this problem with other aerosol spray products while it happens pretty consistently with this one) and 2) the output can become inconsistent (the product doesn't spray out consistently and in the same amount) as you get down to the last 1/3 to 1/4 of the can. That said, this product performs better than some more expensive similar products that I've tried, and I'm generally quite satisfied with it.

Does not dry sand. No problem with the spray out. Let it cure for 2 days, attempted to dry sand and within 10 seconds the sandpaper was slogged and the epoxy was extensively scratched. Sandpaper was quality 3m paper. Don't recommend this primer unless you want to wet sand and even then it doesn't sand very well. i'll stick with SPI products.

First time using a epoxy primer and will definitely buy again.

The advantage of using this product is that you don't have a short window of time in which you have to use the full can. The other brand of 2k primer must be used quickly after you mix the two components. Wearing a mask is a must with this paint. Don't breath the fumes and get a the proper equipment because it is toxic.
