What do you think it will take to get Van's to start
using a good epoxy primer? I'm pretty surprised
they use this Sherwin Williams P60-G2 Wash Primer,
since it does not provide a vapor barrier, so is
really "useless" unless you paint a top coat over it.
Of course, in the QB, you can't get to all the places
that need a topcoat. This seems to be a rather
strange choice that Van's has made, IMHO.

With Van's it is all about money. Therefore it doesn't surprise me they use
the cheapest primer,cheapest alternators, thinnest panel,
etc.
But considering the total package they do have one of the best things going.

There are those that think interior primer just adds un-necessary weight.
