Patchy radiators

[d2001]

Hi,
I've sanded down my radiators were paint was peeling off and then used zinnser sealer. But the radiators are still patchy. Any suggestions on what paint to use next? Should I undercoat it first? I was planning to use multi surface paint but I'm not sure...

Which zinsser sealer?

I would sand.
3 coats of multi surface paint with a mini roller for quick application then level off with a brush.
Stir paint well

I used this:

Zinsser Bulls Eye 1-2-3 White Matt Stain Block Interior & Exterior Multi Surface Primer​

Do I need a different zinsser paint or should I get undercoat?

Stir paint.
Paint needs to be room temperature.

One or two coats of the bullseye 123.
Should look nice a white and not patchy.
Look's like your applying way too thinly. Use a 4 inch mini roller and get the bullseye 123 on

Thanks, I will shake the can first, then reapply it.

Shaking is not the sane as stiring.

Yeah. Wooden spoon is good. Shaking is useless and you risk the lid popping off.
Wooden spoon in a drill on a slow speed is also good.
I used to buy then in packs of 6 spoons for £1. Those days are gone.ahhh

IKEA have them for 50p each.

They are the best. A few branded paint mixers on the market but for hand mixing or in a drill a wooden spoon wins for me. IKEA it is then and one for the Mrs for her birthday. Ha
