Great primer for steel tubing frames, Im painting it on with a 1 brush. Its just right for painting on with out solvent added and has pretty good working time in small batches and even rolls on well (but not foam rollers it melts them). It covers very well but will probably require a second coat in some places.

This is a great paint to shoot on any 4230 tubing super structure. Lee

Q: Is the Stits EP-420 primer roll on or spray type?

For best results, we recommend to spray it on, but it can be rolled.

Q: Will fabric cement affect EP-420? Can I glue directly on to the EP-420 coated part? Can EP-420 be applied directly to clean bare metal tubing?

Poly Tak fabric cement will not affect EP-420 epoxy primer. EP-420 can be used on clean bare metal tubing.

Q: Is this Stits EP-420 a gloss, semi-gloss, or satin finish?

Per the vendor its between a semi-gloss and a satin. You would have to scuff it before applying a paint coat on top.

Q: Can you use this and then top coat after it flashes over (wet on wet)?

If you are using poly-tone, then yes you can spray it on when the ep-420 is tacky.

Q: What is the minimum and maximum time after shooting the EP-430 to top coat?

Per the manual: "Dry/Cure Time: Epoxy primer will dry to the touch in 30 to 60 minutes in most conditions. However, it takes a full seven days at 700 to chemically cross-link to full solvent resistance. So in simplest terms, if you rush applying solvent-borne topcoat paints or fabric cement over the top of primer that has not cured for seven days, you risk wrinkling the primer. This is most probable in the hours immediately following primer application. As time passes in the seven-day cross linking period, the primer gets more solvent resistant and the probability of wrinkling decreases. After seven days, it is impervious to all solvents."
