Can I paint POR15 chassis black directly onto a stainless chassis or do I need some kind of etch primer first?

Frosts do sell a self etching primer..is this the stuff I need to use before I apply a layer of normal POR15?

Linky to frosts

Oh, and what is best to use to prep the metal?

Why paint stainless?

Because its a shite grade of stainless in places and where it has been welded there is some minor rust...it would just look neater if its all painted a uniform colour...

Did a search for you on google.

I did see that website, but it still doesnt make it clear..

It gives the impression that their primers are designed for going over previous layers of POR15..

so are they expecting people to use POR15 straight onto metal?

Sorry if this seems really dumb, but im having a blonde moment!
