Skin-on-Frame: Painting Skin - Primer?
By:Marc Upchurch
Date: 5/23/2013, 7:59 am

I am using a Interlux Briteside Polyurethane - a white boat paint - primarily since I have it from another project.
Has anyone used primer as the first coat down?
This is on top of Dacron (polyester) skin.

If you have experience is there any problem or an actual benefit?

Thanks,
Marc
