let your epoxy flash for 30min to 1 hour and you can raptor right over it, no sanding Experienced Trained Certified

Upol rep in australia was kind enough to reply to an email I sent them.
This was their response Once epoxy primer has dried it must be sanded before anything will adhere to it permanently. If the EP was fresh and not fully cured then the Raptor would stick to it, but once cured you need to “key” it to achieve adhesion. 120 to 180 grit abrasive. Hope this helps. So, my thought process, get the necxt lot back from the blasters the momment they have epoxy primed it (hopefully withint a day / two max), scuff with maroon pads and follow up with the Raptor Liner PS, thankyou to all who have taken the time to respond to my possibly pointless questions, it helps me heaps to make a better educated decision, ""maybe "" Steve |

Geez, I think your well educated just because you ask us stuff BEFORE it turns into a big fubared up mess.... If you haven't noticed....most guys ask us stuff AFTER things have exploded.....

FYI, Raptor liner is of the same resins paint is made from. its made to give a texture for DIY guys, and the "appearance" of rhino liner. it is nothing like a Polyurea bed liner.
you could even thin it out spray through a 1.4 and have flat black paint. it does work great, my point is treat it just like paint. Experienced Trained Certified

Thanks, thanks, and again, Thankyou to every person for sharing their knowledge.
I just started sanding / prepping some of my epoxied undercarriage parts, that epoxy is hard stuff, I’m using marroon scuff pads, and whilst yes I can see some small dust accumulating in my scuff pad it barely looks like it is taking the gleen of the epoxy over the blasted items. I have a paint booth at work, but I am doing this suspension stuff at home, will put a drop cloth down when I go to paint the liner Steve |

a word of caution cover everything in your garage you don't want liner on. when spraying the springs and hanging things its going to splatter on your door and everywhere. it doesn't spray like paint it kinda splatters out.
