Dunno if they say that because most metal primers don't work worth a darn on galvanized surfaces - or for some other reason (liability re.???)

Anyway, I found some acrylic-based primer intended for aluminum and galvanized surfaces. Not too expensive really. I used it on stainless trim on my car with excellent results - about two years later and the topcoat is still there, with the primer hidden below. Probably available in your local stores. It's white.
