first69 19 Report post Posted January 30, 2014 Ospho, prep and ready. One paint supplier says one thing to use and one says another. Thought I would prime with Spi epoxy or other brand. I do Have rust to treat before I prime. What have you all used before epoxy primer to treat rust. I can't cut out all the rust. I won't have a car if I do, just pile of sheet metal.

jmlay 80 Report post Posted January 31, 2014 I was at the paint supply store today buying some SEM Rust-Mort. There are several products that perform the conversion & they all contain the same major ingredient, Ospho, Rust-Mort, Corroless, etc... Make sure you rinse it after the conversion, 24 hours, & epoxy & you should be good to go. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bomccorkle 12 Report post Posted January 31, 2014 If youre gonna use spi(which I highly recommend) just give Barry a call and he'll set ya up with a definite plan of attack. Super nice guy and he will call right back as long as you leave a voicemail. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
