SEM's? they dont make a aerosol version do they? well My brother bought a civic hatchback 1992 and its has tiny dents and I filled those up with evercoat and I sanded down the trunk with tiny metal spots right now and I am scared it might rust and spread. so I want to primer it with okay stuff for now because we wont get it painted for a while and let the shop primer it again when they paint it. any good ones out there? price please too.
