Use an inexpensive HPLV detail gun for priming. A regular sized gun is
just to big and non HPLV gives too much overspray. Harbor freight has a
spray gun on sale for $40 and it does a fine job.

Also here is a link to a guide on setting up the gun
<http://purplesagetradingpost.com/sumner/techinfo/HVLPspraygun.html>
The 2 gallon kit should be enough for the entire project. 2 year shelf
life.
No shelf life on the alumiprep, 1 gal will be more than enough.
Alodine does have a 1 year shelf life in liquid form.
Watch out for the hazmat shipping charges.
If you go the solid alodine route let me know if you want to split the
order.

For those that went the alumiprep, alodine, akzo prime (no primer war
discussion), what quantity of these should be initially ordered? Is the
shelf life long enough to order quantities for the entire aircraft?
Is there a better source for these other than Aircraft Spruce?
I understand that alodine can also be obtained in a powder form. Is it cost
effective for us in the quantities needed for the RV10? If so, where is a
good source to obtain the powder form?
What quantities and sizes of "oops" rivets should I order?
I'm also looking for recommendations on a spray gun to use for priming. I
don't have any experience with HVLP guns, so I am looking for what has
worked well for others.
Thanks,
Bob
