[QUOTE="sparkbr, post: 70200, member: 1060"] If you are painting bare aluminum, without paint on it, you will have to either etch the aluminum or use a self etching primer. If you choose not to use the self etching primer, you can cheat and wipe the exposed metal down with Alumi-brite (acid bath). Keep in mind tough, if the aluminum is dull rather than shinny, you will not need to etch it. Cleaning be suffecient. One way to cheat is to use vinager rather than the Alumi-brite [/QUOTE]
