Anyone ever use "Rusty Metal Primer" as a final finish?

There are many options for a clear top coat. Rustoleum makes flat, matte, satin, gloss, and even a hammered texture clear coat. Lots to choose from these days.

Wife wants her small metal porch table painted the exact same color as Rustoleum Rusty Metal Primer. How about I just use that primer as a final finish? Has anyone ever done that to know how well it will hold up?

She knows exactly what she wants! 90% of your problem is already solved. Just clear coat it a couple time and call it a rare win!

Just a FYI

If you mix rusty metal primer 50/50 with hunter green, it makes a great olive drab for painting deer blinds and feeders.
