To get paint to adhere to a galvanic thermal metal spray you would normally use a mordant solution such as T Wash.

That's what I'm not sure about, its not the typical galv finish, that's dipped at 450 degrees into molten zinc the finish is bright like the below.

We use it at work to build up old or out of spec steel, the potential issue for me would be that things like bulkheads rot from the inside out.

Retropower use this process, it is shown on the Gordon Murray's MK1 Escort series. One of the episodes shows the zinc spraying and then details the paint process afterwards - definitely worth a watch for you

You want galv in one from buzzweld and I would use fx2k liner for the stone chip or raptor
