Smooth prime does not really need six coats. The only problem I found with 
it, is that if rolled on it forms a fairly rough surface and requires lots 
more sanding to get things back smooth enough for painting.
One positive however is that it quickly shows you the areas that aren't 
quite as nicely filled as you had first imagined.
Like others, I've found the epoxy mixed filler takes a long time to fully 
cure. Aeropoxy light filler worked well for me and it is less fussy about 
the temperature for curing.

Why 6 coats of smooth prime?  This product is rolled on?
 Does it take 6 coats to cover the pin holes?

Knowing less than nothing about finishing.....
