          Excellent metal primer
          To my great surprise, last week when I got into my metal paint locker I found a can of paint stripper had ate its way through it’s own can and had damaged the locker itself. This metal primer was a easy fix, looking good again.

            Absolute garbage. I've used Rustoleum primers before but for some reason this junk just wipes off the painted surface like dust. I wouldn't recommend it for anything except to ruin your project.

            Response from Rust-OleumSupportSep 17, 2018
            Let's see if we can figure this out, Mikey! Please keep in mind that since this is a primer, we do recommend applying a topcoat to Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Automotive Primer Spray to ensure full adhesion and durability. If the primer is leaving a dusty residue on the surface, you are most likely experiencing dryspray. This occurs most often when users hold the can too far from the surface when spraying - our recommendation is 10-16" from the surface. Effects of dry spray can also happen when temperatures are too high or too low. You can try using a lint free rag slightly damp, and gently wipe the surface to remove the dusting. If it's still rough after doing that, you'll want to sand the surface with a 180 or 220 grit sandpaper and make sure it's clean and dry before recoating.

              I used Rustoleum primer in the restoration of an old book press. After that, I used two Rustoleum Gloss Protective Enamel colors for the finish: black and a new green. I am very please with the way the project turned out. See photos.

              Good paint but spray nozzle likes a lot to be good sprays a circle instead of a fan pattern which makes for runs.
