What paint???

The Badger · Oct 4, 2010

I've got a galv roof rack for my 90 and am going to paint it black, I was thinking Hammerite, anyone used anything else that has produced a good finish and durability? Clean it down and straight on with the black or prep it with something first??

galv a nightmare mate make sure you prime it first with a suitable primer.bright galv needs to be treated with mordant solution or t wash then primed.weathered galv you can prime then paint.

I think Hammerite do a paint especially for galvanised finishes. Anyone tried it?
