Epoxy primer on plastic/rubbery things on body?

[muthstryker]

Haha sorry about the title, I was thinking about having my regal painted with epoxy primer since I wont beable to do the paint as soon as I wanted to, And the car is going to have to sit covered up. So I thought I can maybe get the body work done and I have 2 gallons of epoxy primer that I would maybe just do that untill im ready to paint the car.


Now for the title, the regal as some of you may know has these rubber/plastic "body fillers" between the bumbers and the body, Will the epoxy stick to them?? I dont want to have a black car with White body fillers, I need it to look halfway decent and not like uncle harrys auto shop.. Also what about my fiberglass parts that I have for it would it work for that as well??

any help would be great!

Those rubber/plastic "body fillers" aren't textured are they? If they are plastic and not textured you can just scuff them real well and spray them. Also fiberglass would need to be scuffed just like the metal, get it all scuffed and the way you want it and you should be fine.

Sand the filllers with 400 wet real good. Then spray the expoy primer on them noproblem. I would reduce down the expoy primer alittle
Who's primer are you using?????

I think epoxy is a good start I think you will need to ad flex agent to it though, my paint rep comes it tomorrow I'll ask, why dont you just tape off the plastic and prime everything else?

It wouldn't be a bad idea to add some flex additive to it, but if you dont plan on removing the plastic or taking it off and putting it back on you don't need to worry about it. Check your P- Bulletin to be sure though.
