Dave, like one of the other guys, I used water based "Smooth Prime" on my RV-8 cowl. I just rolled it on then sanded it down. Most of the smooth prime is sanded off, but the pinholes are filled in. I wouldn't use anything but this stuff in the future. Easy to use, easy to clean up.

I used Smooth Prime when I painted my airplane 8 years or so ago, and have
seen a few little bubbles develop under the paint over the years. This is
similar to what some of the composite guys who used Smooth Prime have
experienced. The latest word from the composite guys (I'm primarily going
from what I've read on a couple of canard forums) is that you need to apply
smooth prime and let it cure for significantly longer than the overnite cure
which was recommended back when I used it. Otherwise, you may see the
little bubbles I mentioned earlier.
