does this need a primer like a metal etching primer?

my husband did not use a primer and it worked great! he was very pleased. it does go on more evenly if u do use a primer though.

We used Magic Acid to etch the surface first then sprayed two coats on. Muratic Acid is more harsh Magic Acid does the same job and you can handle it without gloves.

Yes, if you are painting a metal with high iron content. Did you read the instructions? I didn't. I think my wife bought it to spray a green plastic kitchen trash can to make it look like SS. There should be an 800 number to call on the can. If you want your car to look like a DeLorean MC-12, just buy one.

I used it with SEM metal etching primer and on parts without primer. Depends on where the part is for. For a car suspension lower control arms, spraye primer first.

No. But, I bought it separately and it's kinda hokey. I never use it. You end up dropping some out because it doesn't put the primer in sometimes. It seems to be just as fast to dump your primers in a tray and just pick them up with your fingers and place them in the cup.

This is a primer not paint, top side/above the water line marine paint is also available from rustoleum/amazon. Primer label does not specify ingredients and does not mention zinc chromate but does provide directions for use on aluminum. It is for above the water line use but appears so far to have a high tolerance for water. I used two coats of this primer on chrome that I discolored mis-using rust out and then coated it with two coats of grey rustoleum topside/marine paint. I tried several other products including epoxy to no avail but so far this is working.

not sure, maybe try with the primer, should stick but not sure how smooth it will look, has to be smooth as glass or any imperfection will show up

Yes, this is a primer and it is intended for that use as well. Rustoleom actually advertise to do this on the packaging. Simply apply at least three coats of the primer (in a very well ventilated area, it's an oil base primer, and stinks - lots of fumes), then 4h later apply the chalk board finish. That's what I did on a wall of my kitchen and works very well

No - If using on bare aluminum it will require wash down with a suitable solvent, then prime and use R/O above or below water line paint - 2 coats.

With the proper primer, yes. I did not paint my product. But I use to be a professional painter. Kilz is a good primer to use. It is sold in an aerosol can or paint can be brushed on. it all depends on what you're using it for

Your going to want to use a hand press primer. This is for the turret style pressed for a more automated press not a single stage press. Best of luck.

I just brushed on after using a wire brush to remove some rust scales. This seems to work for the price and can put primer over it after it dries.

All the brass I received had the spent primers still intact. I did not see any brass colored primers, only the standard silver. Good lock and hope this helps.

I used a spray-on asphalt primer on the areas of metal flashing and aged peel and seal that I was covering up/repairing. Probably not necessary when applying to new OSB. I'd rather apply this product to the smooth side of OSB for a more positive grip and smoother finish surface.

It really depends on what you intend to use it for. If it's for repainting a regular room ceiling in your house, which is already white, then you probably don't need to use a primer underneath it. However, if it's for a bathroom, and that bathroom is used by, say, two teenagers, each of whom take long hot showers (as in our case); and in which, despite religiously running a venting fan, the paint had been peeling off the ceiling, then yes - it's strongly recommended as a topcoat over a good primer such as Zinzer's own Bull's-Eye 123.

I think it was supposed to. I bought high quality paint and was okay with primer but had problems getting the paint to go. The paint store said that despite claims from manufacturer I probably needed to buy the thinning additives-decided to give up at that point. In addition, you really need to buy different tips for different applications and each one is $30-$40 .

Yes. I did my mothers countertop and it also had that metal lip. After a good cleaning of the entire countertop and metal, The kit has a PRIMER which goes on first. 2 coats on everything and then allowing it to dry properly will solve it. the finished product will look great.....just use your imagination.Good luck, Jay

it would be recommended to sand the rusted areas so you have a clean surface/ roof to ensure seal. However, primer is not absolutely necessary due to nature of the rubberized sealant. KST makes a primer that is meant to take a topcoat though another similar primer could be substituted.
