Doc's foam/fiberglass work + Mark 42 painted pieces

Re: foam with rondo+ new foam mark 8 glove and mark 6 boots

1. heatseal with heatgun
2. 1 coat watered down elmers
3. 2 light coat modpodge
4. 1 coat bulldog adhesion promoter
5. primer
6. paint
7. clearcoat and put bulldog adhesion promoter after to give it more flex

I have a quick question:): Can any primer/paint/clearcoat brand be used or does it have to be specifically Dupli-color or anything else?

I'm pretty sure it should as long as you use same brand for primer, paint and clear. Just cuz somtimes they counteract if different brands:)
