Painted my Edson pedestal with white brightsides in 2015. On the advice from Interlux, I sanded down to bare aluminum and primed immediately with white barrier coat and several coats of white brightsides. The key to priming aluminum is to prime it asap after sanding so it does not have time to oxidize. Had to remove the pedestal to do it though; too cold here in the off season to paint outside. Still looks great after 3 yrs. Did the same process on mast and spreaders the year before and it still looks great too.
