Hey Curbdogs,

I've never been a big fan of putin' plastic filler over sealer or primer....

Ya run the risk of adhesion problems up the road, espiecally if ya over
catylize the filler, against a theratical rust protuction, that you'll
probably sand through workin' the plastic.

PPG is a pretty good product line to go with.

 

You always apply filler to bare metal. If put over paint, it will only last as long as the paint/primer with hold. You can apply glazing puddy over primer.

Do your filler work first. Then prime it with a self-etching primer. Apply the etch on the bare metal, not the filler. Then hit it with a good primer surfacer. After blocking a few times, hit it with sealer.
