Above-ground pool - treated for rust

Used to treat rust on metal wall (as directed for primer) - covered with white - used 2 coats to cover darker primer. Not the solution for heavier rusted metal that was difficult to smooth out and prime. Hope it works well for all treated areas. Looks nice and was easy to apply before new pool liner was installed.

Perfect for spray painting any metal projects

Would Recommend

The primer went on very smoothly and had great coverage. I did apply two coats but there were a lot of areas on my project that almost didnt need a second coat. It even held up after it was accidentally rained on when the tarp I had covering it was blown off. The spray paint I applied had to be fixed because of the rain, but the primer held on and didn’t budge. I already purchased more for another project I am working on because I know it will work just as well for that. It also helped me get th...
