> [@Polak182](#): > > If thats your preferance go with just plain flat black primer. Rubberized Flat black needs to be removed first, and that costs well over $1000. If its a temorary thing, paint it Flat black primer, Like me. I’m going to do that to my beater as soon as I eliminate all my rust spots. Rubberized is something you do when you know you want it that was for good. Actually, you don’t flat black primer the car, first you sand, then you primer, then you spray paint the car flat black. Or if you just want to use primer, you have to use primer with sealer added, otherwise your car will rust to shit. ---

what if I use Krylon “Rust Tough” Flat Black? Apparently it’s rust-proof, but you’re right about the sanding, is also required. ---

The reason you need to paint over the primer is to seal it otherwise the car will rust. I’ll talk to you tonight, we can go to ct and I’ll show you what to use. ---
