Hi, how would one handle when you are sanding before primer/paint but you have some spots where you can’t reach because there is a support bracket over the hard to reach spot.
Do primers exist of some sort that don’t need prepping/sanding that you can just apply after some degreasing? some kind of aggressive “adhesive” between layer?
I saw at my parents house, they are re doing their bathroom and the handy man sprayed some sort of reddish layer onto the smooth tiles to create a base to glue the new tiles onto |

Post a photo of the spots you are trying to reach. Self etching primer might grab onto whatever you are trying to cover, but it at least has to be clean and grease free. _________________ 1968 Beetle (storage)

If you can't reach it then you have to spray/air brush gray or red oxide primer & your paint in there. _________________ https://imgur.com/user/FisherSquareback/posts

Would you be able to get in there with a "hose in bucket" sandblaster?

in the end i used a por equivalent that we have here, that "eats" itself to the primer and sticks and is also an extra primer on itself after a week of drying |
