Re: Under side Body Color for 1062 Plymouth



I'd stay away from primer only; you can use primer then coat with real paint that is the same primer color.

This is especially noted in the undercarriage where it will really get wet if the car is driven in rain.

Of course, not all primer is equal as well. For example,
