Answer
Seymour Paint –
The 16-845 has a lot more zinc and works better when welding thru it. 20-1675 is kind of a lightweight version of 16-845 however is more versatile in its applications.

What’s the process for painting over 16-845? For a steel offroad bumper, would it make more sense to use this or 20-1675?

Answer
Seymour Paint –
Actually, both would be suitable primers for this application. My choice would be the 16-845 due to the high zinc content which will offer significantly more corrosion resistance.

You can leave it in place. It’s meant to be welded through.

I know nothing about these products so I’m asking is this the primer I would use on a steel surface overlapping with steel plate to protect in between?

Answer
Seymour Paint –
Would use the 16-1445 cold galv instead as it has a higher percentage of zinc for corrosion protection
