Rust-Oleum 2089830 Stops Rust Automotive Primer Spray, 12 oz, Flat Dark Gray

Reliable & Affordable Primer – Does the Job Right! ★★★★★ Great value for the price—performs just as expected! I’ve used this primer before, and it delivers exactly as described. It’s a high-quality, oil-based spray that adheres well to wood, metal, and fiberglass, making it super versatile. The rust-resistant formula is perfect for vehicles (cars, trucks, etc.) or any project needing a durable base coat. Why I Recommend It: ✅ Fast-Drying – Ready to handle in 15 minutes and can be recoated quickly. ✅ Great Coverage – One can covers up to 12 sq. ft. efficiently. ✅ Strong Adhesion – The flat finish grips surfaces well and works with any topcoat. ✅ Budget-Friendly – Performs just as well as overpriced "specialty" primers that cost twice as much! Final Thoughts: If you need a no-nonsense, durable primer without the premium price tag, this is it. I’ll definitely buy it again for future projects!

Pricy but good paint.

I recently used the Rust-Oleum 2067830 Stops Rust Automotive Primer in Flat Red as a substitute for red oxide primer, since the red oxide primer was out of stock. This product worked great and met all my expectations. The primer goes on smoothly and provides excellent coverage, creating a solid base for further paint applications. It dries quickly and adheres well to the surface, ensuring a durable and long-lasting finish. The flat red color is a perfect match, making it an ideal alternative when red oxide primer isn’t available. For anyone needing a reliable automotive primer, I highly recommend the Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Automotive Primer. It’s a fantastic substitute that delivers great results. 🚗🎨🔧

The primer worked well. 2/6 cans I bought sprayed dark charcoal instead of gray. The paint blotches went away after using the other 2 good cans. Peeling would occur if you do it in hot weather, since the hot sun will burn the particles before they touch the bumper. I would purchase again, but I had better quality control with Rust-o-leum cans from Walmart and Ace Hardware. The cans arrived with the arrows pointing down, which actually didn't affect anything. I'm a huge fan of Rust-o-leum. Most of the time they are 100% perfect in quality control. I would buy from Walmart.

Worked as intended. Covers the rust, protects from rusting more. Used on my van roof, and it's good value.

In October 2023, I used Rust-Oleum auto primer and automotive enamel spray paint to refinish my shower frame and all the bathroom hardware, changing it from stainless steel to black. I originally planned for this to be a temporary solution, but nearly 2.5 years later it has held up so well that it may as well be permanent. Despite showering 1–2 times a day, there has been no chipping or peeling at all. I’m very impressed with the durability and would highly recommend this product.

great price
