Product Details

Rust-Oleum® Self Etching Primer prepares bare metal, aluminum, and fibreglass surfaces to promote maximum adhesion and smoothness of the top coat. This product is formulated to stop rust and represents an essential step to achieve a professionally finished look.

  • Designed to provide a tough, rust-inhibitive base for most brands of automotive lacquers and enamels

  • Sands smooth to promote a uniform topcoat finish

  • Features an advanced spray system that allows you to spray at any angle, even upside down for those hard to reach areas

  • Comfort spray tip with a wider finger pad reduces fatigue caused by continuous spraying

Thank you Brian for sharing your experience with us! rustoleum-ca

Excellent results on various surfaces!

a year ago
This primer helped me get lovely results on a couple projects: a steel work table that needed to be repainted, and an assembled-materials bird bath (fiberglass, ceramic, stainless steel). Both projects look great and have held their top coat very well.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Very inconsistent spray

a year ago
May have been a one off but the primer did not come out consistently. Made the project harder than it needed to be

No, I do not recommend this product.

Thank you for sharing your experience with our Automotive Self-Etching Primer. This coating should create a smooth finish on the application surface. It sounds like the spray can may have sputtered. To prevent this from occurring, we recommend shaking the can vigorously for one minute prior to spraying, and periodically during the application. Please give us a call at 1-800-387-3625. We would be more than happy to assist you further as we want to try to make things right with you. – Rust-Oleum Product Support 1 rustoleum-ca

Q: Would this product work good on an aluminum canoe??

  • A: Yes. You need to sand and clean the aluminum first. I just finished painting an aluminum 14ft fishing boat and I primed it first before applying the top coat.
