15-20 years ago we were using dp-40/401 epoxy primer with great success. Is it still preferred and available? No, not a new boat, fixing up a current one.

Gene Jr. said:We use the DP line of products in my autobody shop regularly. They are too slow for regular production/collision repairs but are the go to choice for restoration. It is an expensive product! We are fortunate to have the economy of scale when we use it and it's not that bad when you only need a few ounces and have it on the shelf to use.
