Primer war coming right up. I can't imagine there isn't much in the archives, because there have been so many posts regarding primers in the past. Now people shy away from primer e-mails like the plague.
In short, there is no agreement as a group as to whether or not to prime, whether or not to alodine, and what primer to use if you are going to prime.
I have used several primers and am happiest with the Akzo Nobel apoxy primer that Spruce sells. It is tough as nails when it cures. A lot of people are quite happy with rattle cans of self-etching primer they get at Sherwin Williams or your local Auto Parts store. Others won't prime because the aluminum has the alclad surface. It's all up to you.
The Akzo Nobel stuff is probably one of the more complicated to apply, since it requires mixing and a spray gun, whereas the rattle can you just shake and apply. With primer that you have to mix, you will want to prepare as many parts as you can and then prime them at once, making sure that you mark them well so as not to confuse which part goes where.

I have been working on the tail kit with great excitement. I did see the first of the parts get clecoed together which brought about my question. Section 5A of our builder’s manual has several suggestions for priming the inside parts of the aircraft structures. When I looked through the archives I found little in the way of recommendations. Is there a primer system that is better suited than the others that the group has some agreement on based upon ease of preparation and application, better protection and costs?
Thanks,
