Default fix primer mistake?

Prepping my 97 SS spoiler which came primered (never painted) from SLP - I filled/sanded a bunch of small rough spots and gaps using bondo putty, and used rattle can primer (Rustoleum Automotive Primer) to spot prime. Now I discover this was a dumb move, using the rattle can primer that is. I could probably sand most of it off, not sure if I could get it 100% off though. Also I don't know what kind of primer SLP used on it. Can the shop that does the paint just put a coat of the right primer over the whole thing?

It'll prob. Be fine they can sand n primer then paint it but may charge alittle more n will take just alittle longer but shouldn't be a problem.they can cure the primer with a heat lamp if they have one n paint it the dame day but like I said may cost more.

Coating over it with a 2 part primer will be fine, that will be no problem for the shop. Chuck
