Can I paint galvanized metal garden furniture with cast iron paint?

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.
