Default Enamel spray paint in a can for wrought iron?

What were you planning to do about the brush strokes that are
already there? It sounds as if you did not thin or use Penetrol
in the primer. I assume you used an oil based primer, not some
latex stuff.

Spray can work requires multiple coats just to cover. Most spray
paint does not have the quality or longevity of "real" paint. You
must thin enamel quite a bit to spray with your own spray gun.
Penetrol allows brush work to flow out the brush marks. There is
a product for latex enamel, I think it is called Flowtrol.


Floetrol. Stupid name, good product.
