Any loose and flaking paint should be removed and all surfaces should be cleaned and degreased with Fluxaf Power Clean. Any rust should be removed, and surfaces should be abraded to make sure an adequate ‘key’ is produced. If the surface is galvanised, Teamac T-Wash (mordant solution) should be used to etch the surface prior to painting.
Can you paint rusty metal?
Yes, you can paint rusty metal, but proper preparation is essential. We recommend removing any loose rust and sanding the surface. Then, use Fluxaf Power Clean to degrease and clean the surface. Apply Teamac Rust Converter to stabilise any remaining rust. Follow this by priming the metal with Teamac Zinc Phosphate Primer and finish with a topcoat of Teamac Metalcote.
What is the best paint for metal surfaces?
Teamac Metalcote is the top choice for painting metal, offering excellent UV protection and preventing rust.
Which metal paints are suitable for high-temperature applications, like radiators/stoves?
SPO Radiator Paint is perfect for refreshing discoloured white radiators.
For painting stoves or BBQs, we recommend using SPO Heat-Resistant Black Paint, which can withstand temperatures up to 650 degrees.
Do you need a primer when painting metal?
If the metal is already painted and the paint is stable, no primer is needed. However, if there are any bare metal areas or if the metal has not been previously painted, we recommend priming it first with Teamac Zinc Phosphate Primer or SPO All Metals Primer.
What is the best paint for chassis?
The best paint for a chassis is Teamac Chassis Paint, which provides a durable, rust-resistant coating designed to withstand harsh conditions and provide long-lasting protection.
