Post Painting Galvanised Steel

Has anyone got some good tips for painting galvanised steel. Rust treatments for rust spots seem to react with the zinc, as do some primers.

Call an industrial paint vendor or check out their website - I think there is a pre-treatment needed before you apply the paint. Otherwise your paint will probably flake off real quick.
