When you see people rollin it like a paint job the Stripes/Guide coat For the most part is to hide how horible your body work realy is you would be supprised how distracting that striping can be which realy hides the imperfections.

But its also realy good for finding high and low spots if you actualy do some sanding after you have sprayed it on.

3M makes a great product for this if you are going to be doing a guide coat in the future. It's called a dry guide coat. Basically a black powder in a can w/an applicator. You should be able to pick it up at your local paint store.

werd, you can use rattle can but make sure it is a rattle can primer. It will sand off easily, I use it all the time at work and no complaints.
