Which primer/sanding?

[Jeppo]

Just giving some panels a respray and i'm not sure which primer to use. The standard primer halfords have seems to be for metal. So i was looking at the plastic filler primer stuff? Anyone used this stuff?

Also what grade of wet nd dry do you go up to? The primer says about 600..then i was thinking sanding the primer down with 1200...... Thoughts??

Cheers

i know people rant on and on about plastic primer but to be honest when i done my bike i used the normal stuff, that was about 4 months ago and the bikes constantly been outside in the ice snow and rain and not always covered and it hasnt peeled/flaked or anything
