i'm going to fix up the body on my car sometime relatively soon- but money for paint is something i'm just not going to have for a while. i actually don't mind the primer-black finish on the car now, and i think i'd just as soon leave it in primer until i can afford a really nice paintjob, with primer surfacer and all that.
if i use an epoxy primer, am i safe to drive the car and leave it out in the rain? and not have to worry about the occasional bird-poopy either?
i was thinking i could do bodywork in sections, and cover each area in epoxy after it's done. that way i could still drive the car, and then just do a final full coat of it afterwards to blend all the areas together. plus it's not shiny, so it won't show off all the little flaws.
is this a bad idea?
