Topic: Miracke do-it-all primer. Paint guys lemme hear it

[greenjeans]

Ok, I have 3 CB750s & a 500 that are needing paint.   

Is there a miracle do-it-all primer, sealer, surface out there ?     I've always just used a urethane primer in the past, buy my local paint supply is now gone.     All 3 tanks will be bare metal with some filler.  I have 2 sets of sidecovers that are stock, and 2 sets of frankenbike's repros (which are excellent) those are unfinished.

With a new baby in the house, I'm trying to keep costs reasonable.   Is there a product out there that would fit the bill ?  I'm leaning toward Eastwood's urethane primer:  http://www.eastwood.com/urethane-primer-and-activator-gal-kit.html     For that price, I don't think I could go wrong.

Think that would work or should I be looking into an epoxy primer as well since there is bare metal ?    I still have a tank I sprayed 9 years ago with urethane primer and it's holding up great, so that's why I'm still partial to the urethanes.

I used this on my last paint job. http://usa.spraymax.com/index.php?id=841
Worked awesome. But my tank was smooth before priming so not a lot of build up needed.

My first tank I went through the tedious process of etching primer, then build/filler primer, etc. Took time and scratched easy down to bare metal.

I actually had good results with this ^^ process.
I used all Duplicolor products, and clear'd it with Spraymax 2k.
