Metal would be great we have it on my other big coop someone else built for me, Iām just intimidated by the cutting process. Maybe Loweās can cut it for meā¦hmm.
As for the windows what you really want to use there is a bonding primer like the one in the pic. As long as you give the substrate a quick scuff with a scotchbrite pad followed by a wipe down with a damp rag and let it dry before priming it will be very durable. Follow the steps of the fog coat plus 2 coats with the primer and top coat. Beyond that you would add a nice gloss exterior grade clear coat to top it off and go overboard but get great results. The clear coat will also stop your gold foot prints from flaking/peeling off. I say it is worth it considering the awesome job you guys are already doing. Here is a link for a brush/roller applied clear coat that I have used with awesome results.@JoeCT any tips on the best type of paint sealer? The gold spray paint Iām using comes off pretty easily from some of the metal and it got me to thinking I may want to seal the paint on my windows Iām creating from IKEA āwoodā so they are waterproofā¦which got me thinking about sealing the paint on all the wood. Do I need it? What is best and easiest?
Thanks!
