if you mean the rustolium INDUSTRIAL paint, I can tell you it works great. I used a wire wheel in my drill to get all the crud off of my 71 frame and then painted it (with a brush!!) with 2 coats of the industrial rustolium paint(I used the aluminum color) . IT has been painted for 6 years now, kept outside, driven like a truck should be, and the frame still looks great. If I would have known to prep with ospho back then I'm sure it would look like the day I painted it. But it does have a few discolorations due to oil, exaust, and of course a few rust stains have peeked through here and there, but overall it looks great.
