With the fiberglass project i am workin on i plan on using a high build primer. Will i be able to paint right over that, or do i need to go over it with a non sanding primer also?

in my experience, it is best to use a sealer over the polyester primer. I have had issues in the past where the base coat(color) soaked into the poly primer and it took a lot more paint to cover and make it look even.

is there a particular sealer that u recommend, and also , not important, but do they make any in aerosol. Jus curious because i thought that would be quick and easy, i plan on using a air compressor and spray gun for the paint though.

most of the time I use sherwin williams products and House of Kolor. I have used both of their sealers with great sucess...........you would have to go to your local paint supplier and ask to make sure. a lot of companies has a sealer in a rattle can for touch ups.

just go and ask.
