high build primer

JDMopar said
Use a spray gun, not rattle cans. If you're going to strip the car down to bare metal, use epoxy primer first and then use high build over that. Auto paint supplies are expensive nowadays, so be prepared for a little sticker shock when you purchase. Evercoat and UPOL mentioned above are good products. I tend to use Southern Polyurethane primers and clears. I'm not a pro painter like @harrisonm , but just a hobbyist that enjoys doing my own work. I've used all 3 of the brands I just mentioned with good results, but have just gotten in the groove of ordering my primers and clear from SPI. Look on You Tube, for Paint Society channel. I've learned a lot of good tips and practices from Brian. Enjoy your project!

Thanks for the glowing compliment, but I am not a pro painter. I am a just a serious hobbyist like you. I've been doing it for about 50 years, so I've gotten pretty good at it. I bet your paint work is just as good as mine. The secret, as you know, is being careful and NOT rushing all bodywork and prep. Then taking your time block sanding primer, and then not rushing the final paint job. I'd like to see some of your paint work.
