    For whatever reason I'm having a MISSION finding rust-coloured primer in rattlecans here in the UK. Any leads anyone?

    Joker in Halfords said "nope, noone makes anything other than grey primer" :confused::D

    Have you tried asking for Red Oxide primer? I think thats the "correct" name for that type of paint.

    I've always imagined that red oxide would be more of a red tinge than an actual brown...but I'll check it out. Thanks!

    Rust colored primer in rattle cans. The future of the HAMB is doomed.
