[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 432406, member: 13599"] the rule of thumb is to follow the manufacturers instructions: remove all loose and scaling paint - degrease it. sand or scuff existing finishes for best adhesion. if you have mixed bare metal and existing paint, personally, I would not use self etching primer. just a good quality aluminum primer and go with it. Note: it has been discussed in other forums that Self Etching Primer is designed for bare metal only . . . . if it goes over a painted surface, there is the inherent risk of the SEP tunneling and burrowing under the existing paint to create an avenue for corossion.
