Holding up to salt water so far with no rust or pitting.
Good durable paint with good adhesion with a color close to a galvanized look.

Look like mechanically applied galvanizing when dry. Shake well and often, shake-shake-shake, clean nozzle after use.

Good sprayer of this thick epoxy based stuff. Adheres extremely well
Used on bronze propeller and a year later the can still sprays more well. Barnacles accumulated however over 4 months so for that intended purpose I won't do it again but as a sprayer of the thick epoxy based stuff it did a good neat easy to use job. I did turn the can upside down to cleat the sprayer nearing tje end of each application. I had to sand off the prior application it had stuck so well

Works great
Works great. We used this to cover graffiti on a galvanized steel pipe.

Working great so far
I built custom sides for a stake bed truck using lots of galvanized nuts and bolts. Due to the vagaries of available bolt sizes, I ended up with a lot of bolts that were much too long for comfort. I cut these off with a reciprocating saw, leaving dozens of patches of raw steel. I used this product in an attempt to mitigate the damage, spraying it on all the raw steel left by my sawing operation. I haven't had the product applied for all that long in the scheme of things, but so far, I'm very pleased. The raw steel areas I treated with this stuff look pretty similar to the undamaged galvanized hardware. The CRC coating has stood up to four or five serious rain events, and the treated metal hasn't shown any more sign of rusting than the properly galvanized hardware. All in all, I think this product works as advertised, and it's a good problem solver for a situation like mine.

Worth Every Penny!
Glad I bought this brand instead of other spray paint makers. I used it on the rusted bolts on my old wheelbarrow. It dries very quickly and doesn't drip or blob-up screw threads. It will be easy to reapply when the time comes.

Was seeking a great product use on my inner flanges of wheel wells and a few tiny rust spots. Metal was sand blasted clean and primed with this product. I did not a lot of bad adhesion issues and then water like blisters that resulted in rust. Overall this product is not very good. I should have stuck with my Dupont primer ! Not good for Auto body use.
