Default endura bumper prep for paint

What is required to paint my 70 gto front bumper? I have bought epoxy primer with flex additive, but will 2k primer work? can flex additive be used with this? what is the actual name of the material used in the bumper? thanks - Ryan

Word of caution, flex additive only last for about 60 days, it will volitolize just as the paint does. Flex is used to make sure you do not crack during the installation. Most modern paints cary some sort of flex additive in them from the factory. Good luck.
