Stop in for a cup of coffee

I have a can of Rust-Oleum Rusty Metal Primer, so it was to use that instead of buying and buying and buying new stuff all the time.

It is for the upper dash where the speaker and defroster vents are. It has some rust, but not at all too bad, and I will sand it a bit first. It is only because I had this primer already.

I used a lot of that on my duster. And sprayed a lot of other stuff over it with great results. The one I had issues with was the PPG finish coat over Rustoleum gray/black auto primer sprayed with a gun. And those should have been compatible. So far just a few areas. So maybe something on those spots and not a paint issue at all. Time will tell. As for would I use acrylic?.. That primer is sold as automotive primer. The most popular touchup paint around here is Duplicolor. It is says it is 'acrylic laquer' I don't know what formula changes the two have done over the years. But I will guarantee I used them together without a second thought in the past.
