[TowerTalk] Rust & paint

[GALE STEWARD]

I've used the cold galvanize spray for touch ups in the past with good results. However two years ago I repainted the entire tower with Rust Bullet which is called a "rust inhibitive protective coating" by the manufacture.

I painted the tower using a combination of brushing and painting mitts.

In Aruba I used Rustoleum rusty metal primer in the bad areas before
painting the entire tower with cold galvanizing once or twice a year. I
have never seen any primer instructions with the zinc enriched paint
however doing this did not seem to cause any bad reaction. I am not sure
what reaction the Reformer would cause.  If the corrosion is minimal I
would just paint it the cold galvanizing product.  It is easy to apply
with a painting mitt.

Would you use it with cold galvanizing, or alone?
