Stoneguard Fry-up...

Has anyone had problems with Septone aerosol Stone Shield frying up ?

I'm trying to paint the bottom of my fuel tank with it and got a major fry-up in a couple of places. Plenty of primer on first but I didn't use Wax and Grease remover mainly because I had the same problem on something else a couple of weeks ago with a different primer, same story, only in a couple of spots, and that time I went over the primer with Wax and Grease Remover.

Is the Septone product sh!t and should I try something else, should I use a certain primer (on the can it just says something like 'appropriate primer', or is there some trick to using this sh!t.

I have never used it before. Usualy I use brush on Sound Deadener but I thought I would go for the smooth look on the tank this time.

Thanks.

Never used the aerosols before, are they water or solvent based?

This one is solvent based.

WHat kinda primer?

This time it was aerosol Rust-Oleum.

 

Last time it was SLCS or whatever it is etch primer out of a gun.

 

I was thinking I'll sand the affected areas (only maybe 5% of the bottom of the tank), primer again and then put a topcoat down before I try there again ?

Interesting.

 

Isnt Rust Oleum like furniture paint or something?

 

I would be more inclined to try a primer that is definitely compatible, depending on what you can get locally, perhaps even Septone 1k etch in a pressure pack? 

 

Cheers. 

Rust-Oleum make metal paint also, hence the name.

 

Bunnings sell it, it's cheap too, like $10 a can. But many people say it is good quality.

Hmmm. I stick to my previous comment. 

Thanks mate, I'll see if I can get some down the road here or get some in Bundy next time I go.

 

 

I've got some acrylic black Septone in a spraypac I bought for guide coat. That's why I was thinking I could try a topcoat first. I might give it a little try tomorrow just for the hell of it..

Yeah give that a go, see what happens.

 

I rarely use pressure packs except for little brackets and stuff i make up for the dungers, so this is all a bit out of my knowledge base. 

 

Cheers.
