Would like to add my 2 cents worth on this. I have been using LPS. I had
bought many cans several years ago. Holds up well and covers well. Tried
some Rustoleum this year - "It ain't the same stuff". You get what you pay
for. The Rustoleum peeled off. Recoated with LPS and it has been holding up
well.

With cold galv, you get what you pay for. The more expensive ones -$7-10
a can - tend to have better adhesion, coverage and less running. The cheaper
varieties - $3-5 a can - do poorly in those areas. The expensive ones
include
the LPS version, the Klein, and the commercial ones (Rustoleum ain't one of
them).
