Hi All

I've spent the last week of the hols fairing the new cockpit for my 30' cat. I've just painted the first coat of International Perfection Undercoat and of course, all the pin holes and misses have shown their faces. I'm probably going to do a second coat over the gloss areas (not under the non skid) and I was wondering if I can fill the small dimples and holes with normal car bog or will this give me compatibility problems with the top coat. Please remember it's 2 pack urethane paint I'm dealing with.

Thanks In advance

P.S. I need to do the next coat tomorrow and the top coat within 24 hours of that so time is tight.

Shouldn't be a problem at all, after all most automotive panel shops do exactly what you are asking.

If it's just small dimples, may be better with 'spray putty' rather than bog. Can be brushed on, and easier to feather than bog, especially if you wet rub it, but dry will be fine. Will dry quick enough, especially for pinhole thickness.
try supercheap for pink 3M. Comes in a tube also if you only have small pinpricks to fill.
