Hello all,
I have done a good looking wind spinner by laser cutting 1 mm steel as per my CAD Drawing. Now I need to give it a good finish by coating/painting. Can anyone suggest the best method to do this. What are the things to notice to increase the life and quality. What is the pre-treatment / plating to be done to prevent rusting? Do I have to apply any primer to hold the paint?
Thank you very much in advance for all your support.
