Same here, I have done some research and they have a good name so far.

I just ordered some from autobody101.com ,I am not affiliated with them, they had the best price i could find. I got the rust one. I liked that it reduced the amount of products I needed to buy and they seemed to have a decent reputation.

I have and it is good stuff - fills sanding scratches well and sands nice and easy. I let it sit for a month and did not notice any sanding scratches reappear due to shrinkage.

I will say that I did need a bigger spray tip to get it to flow out properly. A 1.7 tip just didn't cut it for me and left me with more orange peel than I wanted to sand out. A 1.9 tip solved that problem. The primer was left in a 55 degree shop so that may have been the issue. Not yet sure. The next time I use it the temp will be much higher so I will know for sure by then. Perhaps putting the can in warm water first would have solved it too.

Good Luck

Anyone use the paint from Tamco? They have a good deal in SS urethane right now and I am thinking on using it.

I haven't tried tamco put i'd keep this thread in mind. Been thinking of using the tamco dtm rust killer.

My DTM 2K just showed up, it looks like it was direct shipped from Tamco. I sent them an email to see what kind of paint chips they have available. I also liked the process they lay out on their blog in regards to the steps in the refinish process. If I read it correctly this DTM primer can be thinned out and used as a sealer.
