I've painted my wing spars for my Thatcher CX5 using rustoleum auto primer. I just want an extra barrier to inhibit corrosion. I've already read all the info regarding the virtues of auto primer regarding corrosion resistance and since I've already done the deed, I assume the risk to my plane, so please rather than comment in that regard, I only ask is there any risk of harm to the aluminum from the paint itself? Just curious.
