Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Primer/paint question

sean1141 · 2014-05-15 16:33:41

Just wondering if anyone can help me out. I want to paint a few small bits for my car so I got some paint mixed in the local motorfactors. Its solvent based paint. Now the bits I want to paint I have primed with a rattle can acrylic primer. The question is will this be ok to paint over with my solvent paint or will it…

You can't put solvent over acrylic - you can do the opposite (which is no use to you!)

So i need a solvent based primer?

I also have some 2k acrylic lacquer so do I use standard thinners when I mix it?
