FAQs

Which is the best metal primer I can buy in the UK?

Many professionals start with a high-build Zinc Phosphate Primer because it delivers reliable anti-rust protection on mild steel and accepts most finishes.

Can I paint over light rust without blasting it all off?

Yes—our Rust Converter chemically neutralises surface rust and leaves a sound, paintable layer, saving time on heavy prep.

How do I prepare shiny galvanised steel so paint sticks?

Wipe the surface with Mordant (T-Wash) Solution; it darkens the zinc to a grey colour and provides a perfect key for primer.

Is there a low-odour primer for indoor steel projects?

Try SPO Metals Primer—a water-thinned product that keeps smells to a minimum yet still bonds tightly to iron and aluminium

Do I need an undercoat before top-coating machinery?

If colour change or maximum gloss is important, apply Metalcote Primer/Undercoat after priming; it levels minor scratches and boosts finish depth.

What’s the easiest way to treat rust spots on car chassis?

Brush away loose scale, apply our single-pack Rust Treatment primer, then follow with a durable chassis topcoat once dry—no special tools required.
