Best Answer

Your best bet would be an exterior acrylic enamel. It will adhere to the galvanized and stand up to the elements well on your garden furniture. For the best looking furniture when you're done use spray cans...do not brush it on. Tip for using spray cans: soak the cans in warm water for 5 minutes before spraying. It will increase the pressure in the can and make for better spraying. Give it a try.

Can you clean new galvanized metal roof with acetone?

If it is straight zincalume or galvanized iron there should be no problem however acetone is a solvent so if it is painted you may damage the paint or remove some of it. Acetone seems like a strange choice for cleaning galvanized iron though. Detergent and hard brush would be better and less toxic.


Do you need a special paint for corrugated steel?

Paint? No. Primer? YES. Corrugated steel is galvanized so you will need an etching galvanized metal primer. Regular paint or primer will peel off in no time! The etching primer as you can guess by the name actually reacts with the steel for a better bond. The steel should be sandblasted beforehand, or al least pressure washed thoroughly. The paint will adhere to the primer. Go to any real paint store (not a big box store with a paint department), let them know what you want to do and they will be glad to help and answer any questions.
