Hey Yall, I need some advice from everyone. I went to my local parts store today and was gonna buy some self etching primer for my boat since I heard it was the best thing for bare metal. They had some and sad I needed Etch Primer Catalyst to go with it. The total was close to $40.00, that seems steep. I didn't buy it because neither of the cans had the mixing ratio on them nor did the dummies at the store know what the ratio was. Does anyone know the ratio or maybe a cheaper way to prime the bare metal. I'll post a pic with this forum topic so you can see just how bare metal I'm talking here. Its so pretty and shiny.......
