Rated 1 out of 5 by from Terrible unnecessary roughness Terrible and rough. This is not a self leveling paint. I put the door flat on a table. Make sure you use a really fine foam roller because it will be alot rougher. Your brush strokes will be seen. I sanded down this door to the metal because the old paint was really rough. That steel was clean. The first coat of this paint put back the roughness, even with a really fine roller. I feel stupid buying this junk.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from DO NOT BUY THIS GARBAGE! Second time using this garbage. Color is not even close to what i asked for, when applied in optimal conditions, you cant apply this crap thin enough to stop it from running. Pic on the left is ONE coat of rusteloem, on the right is after the THIRD coat of this behr garbage, suposed to be safety orange.

Can this be applied directly to galvanized steel (ie exposed ducts)?

Asked by: Laur52
Hi Laur52, thank you for your question. For best results, we recommend priming galvanized metal with the Multi-Surface Primer and Sealer No. 436. Good luck with your project! -Giovanna

Does this paint have actual rust inhibiting additives for direct to ferrous metals? Thanks

Asked by: Nick
Hi Nick, thank you for reaching out with your question. We appreciate your interest in our products. Yes, our Direct-to-Metal Paint is a rust-inhibiting, rust-resistant coating. However, we recommend removing all rust and mill scale using sandpaper, steel wool, abrasive blasting, or other abrading methods to create a profile on the metal’s surface, and cleaning the residue off the metal by scrubbing the surface with a solvent such as mineral spirits or acetone. Keep in mind that bare metal surfaces should be coated the same day they are cleaned. We hope this information is helpful. Best of luck with your project. Have a great day.-Joanna

Has anyone use this on aluminum? Was thinking about trying this on my aluminum fishing boat. 

Asked by: Degan
Hi Degan, thanks for your question. While our Direct to Metal Paint can be applied to aluminum, we do not recommend using it on your boat. Instead, it's best to find a marine based paint for your boat project. Have a great day! -Christina

I have a powder coated metal fence and would like to paint it black as the original coating is faded. Will this paint be suitable for this type of material? It’s not a smooth surface but has a bit of grit to it. Do I need to prime prior to using this pro?

Asked by: Flygirl
Hi there, thanks for the question. When painting over a powder-coated surface, it's recommended to prime first using our Bonding Primer, The Bonding Primer is designed to adhere to glossy surfaces. After applying the primer, you can use the paint of your choice, such as our Direct to Metal Paint. Have a great day! -Ronald

it says properly prepared surfaces, question "what is a properly prepared surface?" can I make sure the surface is clean with a brush or do I need to sand it or what do you mean?

Asked by: Robert
Hi Robert - Thanks for your question. We recommend scuff sanding glossy surfaces and making sure your project is clean and dry before painting. This product is self-priming when applied to metal surfaces; however, you have the option to prime ferrous metals with a rust-inhibitive primer like our Multi-Surface Primer & Sealer for the most corrosion protection. Hope this helps! - Sara

further what is the difference between white base and deep base?  thank you

Asked by: Robert
Hi Robert - Thank you for your question. Our White base (No. 3200) can be used untinted or can be used for lighter colors as it will hold up to 6 oz of colorant. Our Deep base (No. 3230) should not be used without being tinted, and is typically used for our deep or rich colors as it will hold up to 14 oz. of colorant. Hope this helps! - Sara
