Did you prime/paint your spars?

Just curious it you primed your spars, if you did or didn't would be interesting to hear why.
Thanks

Primed inside and out. Living in California as you and I do, you will likely want to visit the coastline. Sprayed the outside and pored it into the inside with tennis balls to hold it in. I mixed up too much primer. One cup of mixed primer will do the job on one spar with plenty of left over. I mixed up about a half of a quart of primer then catalyst and reducer. Makes too much. Wasted plenty.

Are you using Endura’s fabric coating system?

Primed inside and out with poly fiber white epoxy primer. Rigged an airbrush on the end of a piece of pvc to spray inside spar with a tennis ball on the end.

No Josh
I went with Oratex

Yes, primed inside and outside. Australia is a large Island-Continent so flights along the coastline are a given ....

Yes, inside and out.
NW Oregon is pretty wet.
