Can you tell us more about what your goals are with this primer? Are you planning to paint over the top of it? Are you priming bare metal or over existing paint?

It will be going over bare metal. I probably will have the primer on for a while until I save for the paint.

I think SEM has a flat black kit now, "HotRod Black" or something, that gives that "rat rod" look. I used Standox Opti Fill sealer one time to get that look, gray primer wit ha little singlestage black mix toner added to it. tho I would recommend an etching primer first if large baremetal areas, some products( urethane primers) say they adhere to bare metal, but the extra step gives some sense of insurance!
