Dries fast & fills great! Gave it a few coats, sanding smooth in-between coats till I thought it was ready for the finish coats.
SEM 42013 Grey High Build Primer - 16 oz. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000PKX16A..._PwZcGb0XKHCQ0
Instead of finalizing the finish coats myself, I brought the frame/fork to a body shop where he completed the painting.for me.
In the end, it came out great & only charged me a $100. IIRC, the color was a Suburu car color H5 ?

Wow, that turned out to be beautiful!
