The self-etching primer I have been buying from my local auto parts store is
actually manufactured by Dupli-Color. Out of curiosity I called and asked
their tech support a few questions. My main concern was related to
topcoating. The tech rep said this is not needed for internal applications.
It would be needed if the primer was applied to external surfaces as it
contains no UV inhibitors. Just thought I'd pass this along.

Hi Dave:
I looked at the Dupli color material but it did not appear to
be suitable for aluminum. The self etch primer sold by NAPA
mentioned in an earlier listing is. 985 made by Sherwin
Williams also works well.

do not archive.

Regards, John

Hey John,

This particular primer says "Ideal for Aluminum" right on the front of the can. The tech support person also said it was fine for my inteneded purpose. It really seems to adhere very well. Possibly, we're talking about different products.
