Epoxy or zinc chromate primer

[Sankekur]

Does anyone know where I could find either an epoxy or zinc chromate primer with a known temperature range spec and that comes in a rattle can (would be first choice) or that can be applied with air spray.

Bud what do you want to paint?

I want to paint over a chromate conversion layer on a metal surface...hence the zinc chromate (and for the fact that it is a good oxidation inhibitor)......or epoxy because the conversion layer is slightly porous and this should provide bonding for it. The temperature spec is seeing as it will be in the engine bay of a car so it needs to withstand those kinds of temperatures.

Thanks
It is strange to me that none of these have a specified temperature range :thinking:

Found one from -30c to +450c :rollsmile:
