Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Used it on old wrought iron fence. Excellent product for sealing off corroded iron & preventing future corrosion. Good to use in outdoor and damp applications.

Very easy to apply and smooths out easily. Used brush and roller to apply. The primer soaks in very well and dries hard.

Very hard to find paint anymore in ca. Still appreciate being able to purchase paint in california. Love it.



Cons

It is extemely thin and runny. Now it is so thin it's laughable. The can has a sever dent n it.

    The bottom had rusted off the old unpainted one


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Im using this to redo an old metal porch railing that was covered with flaky black paint


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It sands down to silver probably aluminum or steel but has a rough texture in places that looks like wrought iron under paint


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I did sand the railing first but not as much as i could have


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The primer went on smooth covered well with one coat and dried almost free of brush strokes


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    After 24 hours i noticed that where the metal was pockmarked because the primer is thick and creamy it smoothed out somewhat


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The downside was that where the metal was bumpy with bumps above the surface the primer just emphasized it and made it look worse


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The primer was still somewhat soft and came right off
