Clear coat for galvanized sheet metal  + What product should I use to coat a galvanized sheet metal bathroom countertop to seal it from water stains? Currently, the countertop has water stains that cannot be removed by any cleaning products. We plan to Steel Wool [link is to product info at Rockler] the surface to remove the stains, then coat the galvanized steel with a polyurethane type clear coat. Any suggestions? Joy Wilson - Portland, OR +++ What was the response the clear coating sheet metal? Thanks, Brenda Rogers - Umatilla, Florida, USA +++ I have intentions of fabricating galvanized metal countertops for my kitchen. What product should I use to seal them to prevent staining/reactions from acidic fluids? Robert Bailey Building Maintenance - Bellingham, WA, USA

I too want to know what to "seal" galvanized metal countertops with so they won't stain. I plan to install and heard about "acid" stains and water stains....
