Quote: Been following this thread for awhile. I'm a little confused on one point though. Should one use a primer/sealer or not? I'm in the process of stripping my car to bare metal, and am wondering if I will be just painting the Rustoleum over the metal directly, or primer first? Also, has anyone done the paint over something like Rust Bullet or Por 15?
if the whole car was bare metal, i'd use the rustoleum/tremclad primer, if it's just spots i would not bother with the primer. i've never painted over completely bare metal. but i'd immagine nothing would happen if you just used the paint right over the metal. i've painted over por 15 on some suspension parts no issues, rust bullet i'd think should be no issue.
