filler sticks fine to epoxy primer, epoxy prime do body work and then epoxy again to seal in bondo. Then prime paint.

Exactly, regular epoxy primer first, then bondo and body work. Then you mix the epoxy primer with more/slower reducer in it and seal your body work. Then 2K primer over that and you block sand with the 2K primer. Then you you seal the 2K primer with epoxy mixed as a sealer again right before color.

FYI, there are direct to metal fillers. I use the Evercoat Quantum One and will pass the 500 hr salt spray test. No need to epoxy prime first, it is fortified with epoxy. http://www.evercoat.com/productDetail.aspx?pID=294Time and materials are money...

I agree epoxy first. Then filler ( I just can't call it bondo lol ) Then epoxy over that again

One needs epoxy between filler and 2K primer?

filler on metal that has been prepped is how I do it.

I always go epoxy first. I've stripped putty/regular primer off cars many times and they almost always have rust under both. Neither will seal the metal like epoxy or etch primer. It doesn't have to be expensive either, I use kirker I get labeled as summit or eastwood for under 100 for 2 sprayable gallons.

This is completely irrelevant to this post, but what do brand new cars have on them from the factory? How many coats and of what exactly?
