well gosh, I think so, BUT . . . . I hope I haven't made any other =
bonehead mistakes like the one John caught.  The thing w/painting is, =
there are many products and many choices.  Starting with basic decisions =
like "single stage" or "clear coat".  Marinara or Alfredo?  Then, I =
realize I live in Calif. where things that others or you might have are =
not allowed here.  For instance, if you clear coat, then you elimiante =
the color sanding and buff/polish stage.  Spaghetti or Linguini?  I =
already stated my preference when doing a vintage car:  single stage, =
color sanded and buffed.  Others will vehemently disagree, and that's =
fine.

I do distinctly your fantastic car at Delavan . . . beating out like =
what?  +/- 32 cars???  You, or someone!, obviously knows what the heck =
they are doing.  Your car is drop dead gorgeous, and a model to which =
the rest of us can aspire.

  Hi Steve, Does this latest missive mean more adjustments to your =
original discourse on painting? Being an amateur it would be nice to =
have the complete and accurate version so I'm/we're not open to =
mis-interpretation.  I really like when you "experienced" guys give a =
full detailed account of how to do things. I'm trying to keep some =
semblance of fix it history like Wray Lemke did for us back at GT35. =

  ooooops, John is absolutely right.  I should have looked at my "cans" =
of junk before writing such a treatise.  I now realize how I made that =
mistake.  I use to use PPG DP40 epoxy sealer, and an etching stuff prior =
to that (a yellow/greenie looking product).   Somewhere along there, the =
guy I work with said you really didn't need to use the etching stuff =
anymore, as as the DP40 would be fine without it.

  =20

  Then, to make matters worse "in my mind", I started using SEM and UPol =
"self etching primer" in spray cans, again on the advice of the same =
guy, when I would occassionaly sand through, or whatever, the epoxy =
sealer.  My "guy" said that would be fine, and totally compatible with =
the DP40 type products (I now use a similar type product,made by TCP =
(which I believe is made by ValSpar, rather than the $$$$ PPG DP40, or =
even the PPG Omni line).  Thus, somehow in the back recesses of the =
remnants of my withering brain, the two products somewhat merged and =
became "self-etching epoxy sealer".  John is 100% correct, ain't no such =
animal. =20

  =20

  What I will say, is that on the last 3 cars (well, 2 cars, one large =
truck) I have skipped the etching stage completely, and gone completely =
with the epoxy sealer, as the first step.  Have not had one problem . . =
. again, on the advice of a respected auto body supplier person.  Guess =
that is partially how I derived the "new (so new, it hasn't been =
invented yet!) product:  self-etching epoxy sealer!  Throw in the =
self-etching spray cans of primer, which was recommended to use on =
whatever bare metal areas might occur, and that completed my erroneous =
mental route.

  =20

  The next time I attempt such a discourse, I think I best mosey up to =
my shop, and check the cans of stuff I'm talking about. =20

    I've never heard of " self-etching, epoxy - catalytic sealer ".  =
Always thought it was one or the other... Either an etch primer, or a =
epoxy, not both...  What product is " self-etching, epoxy - catalytic =
