Question for PPG / Omni Experts

[brucebotti]

Which PPG clear do you prefer 2020 or 2002 and why? I've always used the 2020, but wonder if the 2002 will flow out better.

Can you use Omni Epoxy primer (MP170) as a sealer? I assume that you can by thinning it out. The P sheet says that it can be thinned up to 10% w/Acetone. Can the MR reducers be used insteadof acetone?

Thanks,
Bruce

Not sure about thinning the omni epoxy, but 2020 hasn't been around for quite awhile. I used to use it and when PPG fazed it out, I went to 2021, which I liked quite well. I'm now using the 4000 and it's really nice.

I used to use Omni thinned 10 % with mr or dt reducers just fine and it works great for a sealer.

Chris, thanks for the info on the Omni Epoxy use as a sealer.

DT196, I must be getting old....didn't realize that 2002 is phased out.....guess I'll stick with 2021.

Bruce, I said 2020 was discontinued.

DT196,
My mistake. I meant to compare 2021 with 2002......I am getting old!
