Eastwood Roll-On Primer

[DoubleDingo]

Have any of you used the Eastwood Opti-Flow Roll On Primer? I am really looking hard at this for when I start doing the body work on Crusty. Seems like a good way to go, and once it is done, it can be painted by a shop.

Nobody? Dang! I guess I'll be the guinea pig.

Never used the stuff but what makes it “roll on”?
Couldn’t you theoretically roll or brush any primer on, with good results? (Save for the finish of course)

Never used it, but I did look into rolling on rustoleum for another project. You can get it to look OK but not great.

I think the roll on products are really for people without access to a good compressor because the work involved seems to be greater than a spray job.

FYI - hunt around YouTube for Ellie's Garage, she's restoring a Falcon and used the Eastwood roll on products.

That's a good point. I don't see why you couldn't roll or brush most any type of primer.

This is a roll-on system. But yeah, one could roll-on any primer or paint if that is the method they choose. Was only asking if anybody had used it.
