Primer and Paint Information
The electro-deposition primer (ED primer) is the base primer before reaching bare metal. When the paint is peeled down to the ED primer, you will see a
yellow color. The ED primer turns more chalky white as it is exposed to UV light.
Wherever ED primer is exposed, you must sand down to base metal to get proper paint adhesion.
If paint color is still present in an area that needs repainting, use 400 or 500 grit sandpaper to remove all of the color coat down to the ED primer.
