[QUOTE="Jdholmes, post: 234224, member: 6982"] While Zinc Chromate may be a /better/ solution than Self Etching, I don't agree with the statement that it is the only primer that will stick to aluminum. From all the reading I have done there are quite a lot of folks using self etching and being quite happy with the results. I used it on mine and the end bond has been quite good so far. I have read zinc chromate to be the best in a salt water application... Self Etching primer is made for bare aluminum...seems odd to make a statement that ZC is the ONLY primer that sticks...
