Since I cannot get anymore Doughmakers lids, I decided to try painting my own. I got some Mirro aluminum pans and painted the lid.
Thinking I should prime it first, I used a sandable red primer (which I had on hand) and bought some auto spray paint. Everything went as planned until...
I lasered the design using anodized settings (100sp/80p) since I did not know what the paint settings should be, so I started there. To my surprise, the paint came off clean but the primer remained. Looked nice, tucked that away for another time when I might want two colors... I took this picture before the second pass to avoid moving it.
I did a second pass and the primer was not even touched. Won't move.
So, as usual, I've gotten a new piece of information. I will try doing one with no primer since I like the silver look for the engraving.
Anyone know anything about metal primers?
cheers, dee
