Without question, seal the plug before primer.

The 30 minute, 2 ton takes around 30 minutes to set up. It will still be tacky at this time. Usually need to let it sit for 24 hours before using the plug. I've used it on plugs in the past and not noticed any yellowing.

2 ton sounds right .I'd hate to see it go yellow under the sunlight 3months after
refinishing it.
do you simply brush a mixture on like paint sect by sect???
