With Dry Guide Coat

Reveal Imperfections that Escape the Unaided Eye
3M™ Dry Guide Coat is used in the dry primer sanding process to identify surface imperfections such as pinholes and deep scratches in primer. When sanding polyester filler, it ensures the filler is flat with no ripples and that the body styling lines and contours are straight and correct. It also ensures the total primed area is sanded prior to top coating.

Using this product prior to priming and sanding will save you rework later when surface imperfections would otherwise appear.
