Love this body style Riv.

I am just curious. Seems like they would shoot white primer under white paint.

I had my BMW 745i shot back in 2004. Black car and they used white primer. That means when I get a stone chip the white primer shows through.

Is there a reason to use black primer under white paint and vice versa?

I think he sanded all that black off. I just know Charley Hutton is really well respected world wide. PPG even flies him around the world giving seminars.

I am not doubting the quality of the work done. I don't doubt the quality of the paint job on my bimmer; just don't know why they used white primer under black paint. The owner if the shop is a friend of mine, so I can just ask him. Will probably have them shoot my LT-1 body.

Have seen a lot of high quality jobs where they shoot black epoxy primer, follow that with a poly high build primer so that it can be sanded perfectly smooth before final coat.

I know the PPG epoxy primer can be had in both black and white.

Again, just curious.
