FredW Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 I have done some painting on galvanized. I etch it first with vinegar and it seems to last very well. I took a peice of old corragated tin and etched it with vinegar and painted to look like an old American Flag for my father in-law. He hung on the front of his shop. It lasted for 2 years until the shop burnt down. It was in very good shape till then. Fred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clark-kentski Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 I have had good results using ospho as a primer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian C. Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 I have used Kilz (sp?) brand primer over galvanized, then regular spray enamel. This is used by the sign shop at the plant where I work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
