Hi Deve:
Experience is the best teacher. Where's that company located? How much did
it cost?
On the frame, it all sounds good, and in fact sanding a layer of primer is
going to give you a really nice finish. Given that frames take a lot of
small hits, some people use black primer only, since the gray will contrast
in little rings around the dings. Instead of DP40 gray, you could use DP90
black for the epoxy coat.
I hate the new paint regulations. Urathane is much harder to clean than the
acrylic enamels. They're particularly bad if your paint gun attaches to the
reservoir via hoses. The hoses clog after one use if you don't spend an
unreasonable time cleaning them. Urathane sandable primers do sand very
nicely, however.
Make sure the primer/surfacer is sandable if you plan to sand the middle
coat. . It's a pain to sand non-sandable paint. The sand paper clogs very
quickly.
