Title: Primer ? Post by: choice120 on January 08, 2009, 01:36:16 pm Is there a need to prime the galvanized parts shelves etc before laying down hammertone rustoleam. Or just scuff them up and remove any rust. Thanks

Rustoleum just came out with a new series of spray bombs, and the stuff is pretty amazing. The can has a trigger built into it. Not sure of the exact model name, but look for the can with the trigger top at Home Depot or Lowes. I've used a few different colors, and it blends the best out of any of the hammertones I've tried. It lays down nice and even and looks great. I've used it on some control panels on my arcade games and there isn't a scratch on it yet.
