If you add a bit of fast dry reducer, the paint would dry a lot faster and it wouldn't clog as often. Also, run the paint through a filter. The screen on the sprayer isn't fine enough. I'll be painting my barn and shop next year, so thanx for the video.

Do you have to prime with Kilz2 if you already have paint on the metal roof before applying the oil topcoat?

That roof needed torn out! I guarantee you, there is wood rot throughout that entire roof!

You used an Acrylic Kilz2 water based primer, under enamel? I don't think so.

Killz2 is latex water based not acrylic

@@wardraven8755 WATER-BASE is my point. Terrible base coat for exterior metal primer. I even use Alkyd base primer for interior seal coats, and good for a base over old oil or alkyd paint when converting to water base paint.

Have a 3 year old steel roof. The roof is green and want to repaint it black. Is there an oil based that can just be painted over a cleaned newer roof?

Hi there I’m a professional roof painter. If the roof has already been painted from factory and is in good condition it just needs a good pressure wash. If there is some rust spot you will just need to rust convert those areas. Rust oleum makes a rust converter with a built in primer. From there you can just use an Acrylic roof paint and spray straight over the roof.
