But...keep in mind, the for the absolute "best" results, if you start with a bare area of metal, use an etch primer, then an epoxy then your top coat. So unless you want to re-sand everything 2 times, just spend the money to take care of it the first time around  |
I second the use of an etch primer over bare steel, if you don't the paint may come off.
