  • Works Great for Automotive Projects
Size: 12 fl oz (Pack of 1) Color: White
I’m happy with this Rust-Oleum automotive sandable primer. It was easy to apply and provided good coverage. It sands smoothly and helped create an even surface before applying paint. It’s a useful product for small automotive repair and DIY projects. Overall, good quality for the price.

  • Great product for minor repairs
Size: 12 fl oz (Pack of 1) Color: White
Great primer for my silver painted car. Doesn’t affect paint tint. Reliable spray nozzle, clears easily completely. Eady to sand as goes on with good coverage.

  • Great Value for the price! Makes finish sanding EASY!!
Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1) Color: Black
I recently switched from a grey primer to Rust-Oleum’s black sandable primer for all my 3D-printed helmets and props, and I’m genuinely impressed. First off, the price is great—this 12-ounce can won’t break the bank, even when you’re covering full-size pieces. I sprayed two light coats on a full-scale helmet and still had plenty left over for a half-scale mask, which felt like a real bargain compared to other brands I’ve tried. What really sold me was the spray consistency. The aerosol tip delivers a smooth, even mist every time—no sputtering, no drips, no frustrating runs to sand out later. Even on tricky curves and recessed details, the primer settles perfectly, filling in light layer lines without obscuring fine sculpting. It’s forgiving enough that you don’t need perfect technique to get a great result. But the best part? The deep matte black finish makes imperfections practically leap out at you once you start sanding. Any high spots, pinholes, or rough patches are instantly obvious against the dark background—something I missed for years when using lighter greys. That little bonus has saved me hours of worrying over unseen flaws and made my final paint jobs much smoother. If you’re serious about prop-making or automotive work on plastic—and especially if you’re on a budget—give this black primer a shot. It sands down silky smooth, bonds like a champ, and really highlights spots that need a little extra love. I’m sold: it’s affordable, effective, and has earned a permanent spot in my workshop. Five stars from this avid maker! ... show more

  • Works good for automotive spot work

It’s really important to use a primer on metal to get the tooth down into the metal and the acid edge of this primer removes any type of oxidation coating between sanding the metal cleaning the metal and getting the metal painted so you get a good bond. this worked well on the finish ended up being very nice ... show more

  • Does the job
Size: 12 fl oz (Pack of 1) Color: White
Touching up a white car using the usual red sandable primer is a headache -- you have to spray a lot more color coat over it to make sure the red is hidden, and there always seems to be some show-through. I found this Rustoleum white primer and gave it a try, I'm happy with the results. I used it on a warm day and let it dry overnight.A spot looked like it got a lot of overspray, but the primer wet sanded smooth. I applied another light coat and let it dry for a couple of hours, then wet sanded with 400 and 600 grit paper and sprayed on a Dupli-color match. No orange peel or any other problems were encountered. The Amazon price was among the lowest and definitely beat the home improvement and auto stores. ... show more
