Default what to use to seal bondo

i painted my ek championship white about a month ago and after we were finished we noticed that the doors were yellow where we bondo'd but we only used spray primer. Is there a certain sealer that u can use so that the bondo doesnt react with the paint and come through? Someone get back to me asap.

well if you already painted the car,assuming you used catalyst with the paint or the clear, you can just scuff and re-shoot the panels with the spots, but in the future, you need to apply 2k primer or some polyester primer with MEKP hardener, stay away from rattle can garbage!

^^^Yep, rattle can primer is ok in some situations but for real work its poop in a can. The filler went right through it and bled into the base. I've wiped that **** off with wax/ degreaser, some of it is that weak. 2k high build, and you can base right over that.
