I think they are using the term "Epoxy" very loosely, and if it were my Bike I would only use Powdercoating or a two-part Paint system (urethane preferably)-it will have good UV protection and last-just my .02, and you can now return to your regularly scheduled program
thanks for the help. Do you have a recommended spray can to use for the gloss black over that primer?

try this, although you will have to buy some Reducer to thin it out so it will lay down-

I've never used this, but it might be worth a try-

Remember, it is all about atomization, the finer the spray droplets the better the Finish-if you go with a single stage paint it will be easeier and you can cut & buff it-also single stage (unlike BC/CC will not show a scratch as much-
