+1 on the epoxy primer. It's well worth the extra cost for protection and the adhesion is like nothing else. If you're set on BC/CC for everything, it may be worth your time to look into a higher quality line of basecoat. Yellow tends to be a little more transparent than most and what may take 3-5 coats to hide with cheaper stuff (like PPG Omni MBC) would likely cover in 2-3 with better stuff (like PPG Deltron DBC). Since you can do the same job with less paint it can actually be cheaper to use the higher line base. Lately I have been using Deltron base with everything else from the Omni line because that's what several body shops in my area have been doing. On my 102 I'm using PPG MTK series urethane single stage for the yellow. It's kinda nice because the color and clear is all together so I save time and don't have as many chances to get dirt in my fresh paint! On my cast parts like the rear end, I sprayed epoxy primer and went right to topcoat. I'll be using 2K primer surfacer on my sheet metal when I make it to that point. I also plan on wet sanding the sheet metal and clearing over the single stage for a little extra shine. I don't have a lot of time to spend in the shop right now, so progress has been slow. I don't have any pics yet, but I will try to get some posted of what I have so far. Good luck!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
