Redoing a set of Tract-O-Lites. Stripped 'em down to shiny metal.
Never used Tisco paint before. Will it sit well over Rustoleum primer?

I heard that the Tremclad and Rustoleum are the same company and I used Tremclad red oxide primer on my rims. I was intending to just do my rims on the cheap to get it all over with but then someone here reminded me that after all the rim repair,
I should do it right.
So then I wondered like you, if Polyurethane Valspar Ford Grey would spray over that primer and it was OK.
So as a partial answer for you, I do know that the Valspar I used WILL spray over Rustoleum Primer.
If your Tisco ISN'T thinned with laquer thinner or equivalent reducer, you should be OK.
Maybe you should get a quart of Valspar and you'll have it for anything else Ford Grey.

OH! It is a later Ford Grey! (?) Oh well! I like it well enough anyway.(reply to post at 19:46:45 10/04/14)
(quoted from post at 20:17:02 10/04/14) Tall - Thanks for the info. I will make note of it. Very nice looking tractor. What are the holes in your rear centers. Looks like you were practicing with a new drill.
Thanks, I lucked out.
but about the disk holes . . .
I know! and the damned holes have a crazy pattern.
but I'm an old beatnik . . . actually a Hippie, so I got stuck with
crazy wheels man!
Certainly the coolest wheels I've ever had. Before that I'd have to go way back to my 60 TR3 when I was 18.
"I always have thinned rustoleum paint and primer with acetone since that is what I read on the back of the can years back. Really haven't read the can again only cause I cant see the #$%^
writing."
Cool!
Then I'll mark that down about Tremclad primer & acetone, since the companies are the same . . . I think Tremclad is the Canadian version of Rustoleum.
"I painted my tractor seat, dash panel and tranny shifter cover last year using rustoleum primer and paint while thinning with acetone and adding Japan drier to both. The finish is actually very tough.

Im a softy when it comes to the kids
They can do no wrong . . . as long
as they do it with the right intentions.
I want to be the grandpa that they want ta
hang out with.
Great lines! You're a poet and ya didn't know it.

gave them a shot of clear lacquer to stop the rust and still show the metal finish.
That's a great idea; the kind blacksmiths like.. . . preserving and enhancing the organic greys.
Do you use a satin or gloss clear?
