For wood surfaces, use \u003cstrong\u003eAsian Paints TruCare White Wood Primer\u003c\/strong\u003e. Using wrong primer type leads to poor adhesion and premature failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e3) Do I need to remove all rust before applying metal primer?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, \u003cstrong\u003eremove loose rust, scale, and flaking paint\u003c\/strong\u003e using wire brush, sandpaper, or rust remover. Metal primer works best on clean, sound metal.

In humid conditions, allow longer drying time. Applying enamel on damp primer causes poor adhesion and bubbling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e5) Can I apply metal primer on galvanized steel?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, but \u003cstrong\u003egalvanized steel requires special preparation\u003c\/strong\u003e. Clean with vinegar or etching solution to remove zinc coating's shiny layer, rinse thoroughly, dry completely, then apply metal primer.
