Default High Fill Primer

How deep of an imperfection will 3 coats of high fill primer fill? I have some low spots that are about 1/16 deep and am wondering if I should use some filler first or just spray with primer. Thanks

OK...Not meaning to be a smart @ss...but it is hard to say.

It ALL depends on the gun you are shooting with...and how YOU apply it. So...like I have written so many times before....why don't you TEST it on something first.

You can not just write "high build primer"...beacsue that does not mean squat...you have to be very specific in what you are using....because what I use will darn near cover a dime. But I do not know if what you are planning to use will do that.....and for what it is worth...if you have body imperfections 1/16th of an inch deep....I would apply a skim coat of Vette Panel Adhesive on them and block them out and then prime.
