Prior to top coat going on some sort of heavy undercoat. Easy to rattle can spray, then wet and dry it smooth before final top coat/s

Can anyone recommend something. I suppose it doesnt need to be spray, just something i can rub down and remove blemishes in the metal that might show through, filler and the like.

Ta much

Spray Bike do a couple of primers/fillers for exactly this. (I’ve got one of them but haven’t used it yet.)

Red oxide primer for a steel frame. Done it loads of times with BMX's.

Just finished spraying an old frame with spray bike paint...very impressed with how easy it went on and the finish. I was recommended to use the primer with Zinc as i was spraying a raw frame. Highly recommended.
