## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Auto Body Material
*by J***T on September 16, 2025*

Great product, fast delivery.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Epoxy primer/sealer.  One to one mix, makes a quart total.  Thinned as sealer.  See video
*by C***S on September 13, 2025*

The media could not be loaded. TCP global product. Used as a primer when mixed one to one and can be reduced to be used as a sealer. I needed a sealer to cure leach thru from previous work done to a car i bought. Primer did not work to use as an efficient barrier. I had to sand thru the issue, but with a coat of the sealer the problem was fixed and i can move on to the top coat. You can choose the speed of the activator to suit your climate and the same with your reducer. I can recommend this.

### ⭐ You're rolling the dice...
*by S***B on April 19, 2025*

Don't buy . You're gambling with our dates stock. My guess from the reviews is tcp is using Amazon to move old inventory because you can't return it... My product was out of date. It was chunky and very thick. When mixed properly, which took almost 45 minutes.. it was the consistency of house paint and could not be sprayed. A complete waste of money. I've used this product before and it was fine. Just know you're rolling the dice and you can not return it.
