In most of my machine restoration I deal with steel and iron. My current project has several large aluminum castings. I tend to use Rustoleum products due to their easy availability. Rustoleum's aluminum primer is water based, it is difficult to spray and I hate dealing with it. The machine is a cold saw and is going to see a lot of coolant and abuse, so I am very concerned about the paint sticking.
The question is: Is there a specific paint and primer combination I should be using? My default is going with Rustoleum auto primer and standard Rustoleum paint. I would appreciate any advice in this area
