Most two-part aliphatic urethanes are quite thin and don't cover texture
well. Your surface prep needs top be quite thorough.

Ahoy, our local paint shop recommended a 2 part aliphalicsomething
epoxy called Ameron. My question is,.. do I sand my rolled on primer
coat as smooth as possible or leave it pimply? Thanks as always, the
horizon moves closer.

Do you mean Imron?

What do you want the final surface to be, smooth or "pimply"?

2 part poly are also called LPU's (linear polyurethanes). Cost about
$100 per gallon to much much more.
come as acrylic polys or polyester polys.

Usually applied by roll and tip or spray, but I am probably going to
'test' just a brush on coat with a pricey Prudy (maybe misspelled)
brush - 15 bucks for a 3 inch brush! - this weekend on a 12 footer...

Is the acrylic LPU more durable than the polyester LPU ?

Thanks,
C.Thomas
