    Q:Can I prime a bath tub with this before coating it with the tub and tile paint to prevent any peeling.
    by|May 19, 2023
    1 Answer
    Answer This Question

    A:  Happy to clear things up, Jess! Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Clean Metal Primer Spray is not suitable for use inside a bath tub. The constant exposure to moisture and high humidity will cause this primer and whatever topcoat on it to peel. If using our Specialty Tub and Tile products, proper prep and application are key in ensuring lasting results with the paint. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3

      Q:Can aluminum gutter be spray painted after primer is applied?
      by|Mar 8, 2023
      1 Answer
      Answer This Question

      A:  Great question! Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Clean Metal Primer Spray can be applied to metal surfaces, provided the metal is not galvanized. The zinc on galvanized surfaces prevent oil-based paints from properly adhering. If the surface is galvanized, we recommend priming with Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Universal Bonding Primer Spray instead. Both primers can be topcoated with other spray paints. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Rust-Oleum-Stops-Rust-12-oz-Universal-Bonding-Primer-Spray-6-Pack-285011/205926957 - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3

        Q:For outdoor metal, is one coat sufficient? Or need multiple coats and a top layer of paint?
        by|Jan 9, 2023
        1 Answer
        Answer This Question

        A:  Thanks for reaching out, William! The Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Clean Metal Primer Spray can be used as your primer, but it may be a good idea to do two light coats to ensure coverage and protection over the metal. This will ensure the best protection against air and moisture and protect the metal against rust! - Rust-Oleum Product Support 1

          Cloggs up the nozzles.
          I had a can of this spray primer for a while and I do all the recommended steps. Shake for at least 1 minute (my personal minimum is 3 minutes), I clean the nozzle between uses. Still clogs the nozzles. I had a can of Automotive primer (gray in color) that I used up but the nozzle was still good. Tried it on this can and it did the same thing after about 3 minutes of spraying. The picture I attached has the gray and white primer on the nozzle. I also wish Rust-o-leum sold replacement nozzles.

            Priming metal surfaces before painting
            I am no DIY expert but, it has recently become a hobby. I found that this product made my final color stand out and adhere very well to the table I was refurbishing.

            Its hard to judge this product, it is probably the most durable primer for metal, however in the wrong hands it can run easily as a few members reported. With that said I had a professional sprayer coat two fenders and a hood and not one drip, so this is the correct product in the right hands. If your not used to spraying and spraying something ( especially vertically) where the finish is of great significance like a car, I wouldn't take on the task yourself, get someone with experience as it is extremely difficult to sand off, which is a good thing. If this is for a mailbox or so, than have at it.

              This primer worked really great on my wrought iron railings. I striped them down to bare metal with my angle grinder and sprayed this on the next morning. About 15 mins later I went into two coats of satin Canyon Black paint. Everything bonded really well and I am pleased with the results. I will note when spray painting, you need to cover any area you dont want paint on. I found that especially true with this primer. It 'travelled' further than the black paint. Can has good coverage, thick coat. Both railings took 3 cans/coat.

              Great spray paint
              The coverage of the white primer applied well on both bare metal and previous painted prepared surfaces.

              Covers well. Too soon to tell if it really stops surface rust from continuing to oxidize.
