This primer works well, providing a solid base on metal. However, the 2:1 mix ratio can be a bit confusing if you’re not used to it. Make sure to read the directions carefully!

Excellent for DIY Projects
I bought this 1.5-gallon kit for my home garage project, and it did not disappoint! The 2.1 VOC compliance means I can use it indoors without worrying too much. Just plan for some time to let it cure properly.

Color Variation Not as Expected
I was a bit disappointed that the gray looked different in person than what I saw online. It’s not bad, but I was hoping for a closer match. Works fine as a primer, though!

Great Coverage, Easy to Apply
I used the Custom Shop gray DTM primer on a metal surface and was really impressed with how well it covered. The application was smooth, and it adheres perfectly. Just remember to mix it well before use!

While the product itself is great, I had to wait longer than I would’ve liked for it to arrive. The primer works as advertised, but I was frustrated by the delay in shipping.
