I'd like to paint my steering column after I rebush it... I do have a
small pot of rust paint (house brand at Canadian Tire)-- it says to prime
aluminum with a galvanising primer before painting...!
I don't think this would work out... the only galv. paint I know of leaves
a rough finish (I think you have to hot-dip parts to get that smooth
"frosted-window" galv. fisish, a la playground slides)
Should I bother with the primer? I know that lots of paint will flake off
aluminum without much encouragement.
I would like to have it gloss black to accent the other flat black/chrome/
wood grain things found nearby on the dash.
Any suggestions?
