Have you Googled it Dylan, just ask a panel shop in your area who there distributor is. Bomber toys with the epotec, just make sure it's the 1 with the anti rust properties, which i don't think epotec barrier does, i only use some protec, but i have a friend who's a rep. I'm sure it's on their website for a full description of the differences. Gary.

All of the Epotec 408 range is Zink Phosphate based and has good anti rustiness. 

The grey green is the best, You can also get it in black and white, both contain less Zink than the grey green. 

Barrier EX-408 and 428 are similar products available in dark grey, white, and maybe some new colors that I havnt payed attention to. Its rather good also, but I feel the Protec Epotec 408 is better for automotive work. 

 

Cheers.

Bomber just a quick question can you put filler over 408? I have the grey green one and I'd like to get the car blasted then sealed in 408 ASAP which doesn't give me time to put filler on before epoxy primer?
