Owen Davies –
Providing you take real care, as the label suggests, to degrease the surface, this works outstandingly well and better than an aerosol product I had previously purchased from a nationwide auto parts store!

It at first appeared to be an unnecessary extra cost and processes. However, having previously experienced paint blistering reactions having painted directly onto what I thought were well seasoned galvanized surfaces even using the recommended primer undercoat and process.
Applied this around 5 months ago in a 3 stage Mordant, Primer then Topcoat process and is looking good against a comparable now blistering primer/ topcoat without Mordant solution.
Its a major costly job trying to sort out paint problems. Fortunately for me this time its only on a small comparison test area this time.
