Rust-Oleum Specialty Farm & Implement Gray Primer, 1 gal. is rated 3.3 out of 5 by 4.

Rated 3 out of 5 by krb12 from Lousy coverage I repainted a 1 use shipping container. It came in yellow and I wanted it to be gray to match my buildings. It had minimal rust as this container made only one trip from China to the USA before being sold to me. I pressure washed the container and treated the few rust spots. I applied the paint and its coverage rate was just horrible. I ended up using 4-5 times the application rate to get rid of the yellow showing thru. I applied 3-5 coats of paint. I used rollers and paint brushes. The end result is fantastic but the paint coverage listed on the can was not even close to the actual results. A year later the paint still looks like it was applied only weeks ago. It is durable and still looks great. Paint quality is fantastic, however the cost of painting this container was 4- times the expectation due to the paint coverage rate not being accurate.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Jeff the Welder from Don’t Waste Your Money I bought this primer to paint some brand new rust free steel channel. The steel was wiped down with lacquer thinner prior to primer application and was bone dry. I knew when I opened the can something wasn’t right. The primer was white instead of the gray as indicated on the label. I thoroughly mixed the paint for a couple minutes and I noticed it was still very watery with not many solids. As I applied the primer with a brush I noticed it wasn’t covering well at all and appeared to bead up. After about 5 minutes the surfaces that the primer was applied to began to rust.

Rated 4 out of 5 by KBBBBB from NOT AS ADVERTISED I BOUGHT THIS PAINT FOR RECOLORING A SHIPPING CONTAINER. I BOUGHT A 1 USE CONTAINER IN RUSTFREE SHAPE. I ASKED A QUESTION WHAT IS THE COMVERAGE RATE FOR THI PAINT. THE ANSWER FROM RUSOLEUM WAS 611 SQUARE FEET PER GALLON. IN REALITY IT IS NOT EVEN HALF THAT. IT IS GREAT PAINT AND COVERS WELL BUT IT IS TAKING MORE THAN TWICE THE AMOUNT. WE ARE ACHIEVING ABOUT 200 SQUARE FEET USING A ROLLER. USING A PAINT BRUSH THE 200 SQUARE FEET BECOMES LESS. THE END RESULT LOOKS GREAT BUT IT IS REQUIRING 2 COATS TO ELIMINATE THE ORIGINAL COLOR. ORIGINAL COLOR IS A LIGHT TAN
