		Aluminum Primer 
		I'm getting ready to do a little project that involves covering new 1/8" sheet aluminum with spray-on 2 part urethane bed liner. 
 
 The bed liner instructions recommend priming the aluminum before applying the liner.  I contacted the company about primer recommendations however I haven't heard anything back.
 
 Does anybody have a recommendation on a good aluminum primer that is comparable with urethane?

		Look for a good self etching epoxy primer.  Here's a nice, brief article; https://garage.eastwood.com/eastwood...imer-aluminum/

		I know Raptor liner has an epoxy primer they recommend, I wouldn't think it would be different for aluminum.

		I use an etch primer on aluminum.  Some of the epoxy primers are self etching, just something to think about when you pick a primer.
