I committed to doing everything to build my car when I started. I am now starting the bodywork and have been reading everything I can on working on glass cars. I have done several completes years ago but never a fiberglass car. I have also talked to a couple of professional guys that have done a fair amount of Cobras. Yes, as always opinions vary and most guys seem to stay with what works for them.

One issue I am trying to resolve is do you need to epoxy primer or not when you end up sanding through the gelcoat in the seam areas. One guy says yes because the gelcoat is harder than the regular glass and you want to seal the whole car. You can then use Evercoat Featherfill G2, Slicksand, or other various 2K primers over the epoxy. I have read the tech sheets on Featherfill and Slicksand but they don't address the issue if the gelcoat was sanded through in spots. Perhaps it may be recessary to spot spray epoxy on only the seams areas

The other issue I need some help on is both the tech sheets for Featherfill and Slicksand say you can spray the base coat right over them without a sealer. Does anyone have experience with this?

I have read tons of threads of the FFR site but they don't seem to address these issue conclusively.

Thanks.
