Get a good self etching primer, like Dupont Vari prime. Spray a very light coat over all metal surfaces. You will still be able to see through the primer for any additional work needed. Self etching will keep the bare metal from rusting and allows for good adhesion when you shoot your primer once you are ready.

Subject: [Chevelle-list] bare metal( will primer seal from rusting?)

Many are the question of the amateur.....

I have my 66 down to bare metal with most of the body work done.
Can I have it primered or do it myself to keep it from rusting?(will the primer seal it?)
What kind of primer should one use?
Can you use spoting putty on top of primer?
Thanks guys!
