Ok so this weekend I am going to be re-spraying the truck and wanted to get everyones opinion on the best primer to use. I want color maybe even do a two tone. Might be blue and white but not sure exactly. But whats the best thing to use and what all do I also need to get with it such as epoxy and whatever. Thanks for the help in advance.

I just use the generic stuff. Works well and fills light scratches as good as any. I think its the transtar stuff. I forget the name of it it's been a while since i used it.
