A:  We're happy to help, Chris. Yes, Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Automotive Primer Spray can be applied to all non galvanized metals. If the surface is galvanized we recommend using Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Automotive Universal Bonding Primer instead. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Rust-Oleum-Automotive-12-oz-White-Universal-Bonding-Primer-Spray-6-Pack-286793/206365322 -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14

    Q:On heavily rusted metal, a good procedure involves loose rust/paint removal, apply rust-reformer, apply rust primer, & then protective-enamel paint? Or what would be ideal? Also, there is paint surrounding the rust. Picture attached.

    A:  We're happy to help, Caesar. When applying Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Automotive Primer to rusted surfaces we recommend removing any loose rust by sanding and then applying Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Rust Reformer. It is then not necessary to apply a primer after as the Rust Reformer chemically converts the rust into a paintable surface. -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14
