You are exactly right about that. I only know of one primer that is specifically made for AL, and it doesnt come in a spray can as far as I know. The best route for painting aluminum is to scotch brite it as best you can, then clean it thoroughly with Denatured Alcohol, and prime with a flat paint.


Losi 8T 1.0, Savage Flux - XL style, LST XXL, Muggy, 3.3 E-Revo Conversion and sitting outside 425hp, 831 Tq Dodge Ram Turbo Diesel. It SMOKES
