What Customers Are Saying

The Rust-Inhibitive Primer Spray provided good coverage and effectively stopped rust on metal surfaces for many users. It worked well as a primer before painting and dried quickly. However, some customers experienced issues with the spray nozzle, and a few found the primer did not fully prevent rust from reappearing on heavily rusted metal. The product's effectiveness may depend on the specific application and surface condition.

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...

There are many primers out there. But I have always used Rust-oleum for rusty metal. In my experience there is none better. I had some lag bolts that the heads on them had rusted. It was in area where I had to look at them. I wire brushed them, cleaned with paint thinner and primed with this primer. After it dried, I painted with a gloss finish coat of Rust-oleum. They look great and I know it will last.
