Description and Use 

Rust-Oleum® Stone Spray is a uniquely textured finish for use on wood, metal, ceramics, glass & more.

For use on interior surfaces only.

Product Application 

Use outdoors or in a well-ventilated area such as an open garage. Use when temperature is between 50ºF (10ºC) and 90ºF (32ºC) and humidity is below 65% to ensure proper drying. Avoid spraying in very windy and dusty conditions. Cover surrounding area to protect from spray mist.

Surface Preparation 

Remove all dirt, grease, oil, salt and chemical contaminants by washing the surface with a commercial detergent, or other suitable cleaning method. Rinse with fresh water and allow to thoroughly dry. Remove loose paint and rust with a wire brush or sandpaper. Lightly sand glossy surfaces.

Priming

Use of a Rust-Oleum primer provides excellent adhesion and hiding, and is especially recommended for porous surfaces and bare wood and metal. For best hiding results, apply a base coat of a color that blends well with the Stone finish.

Application

Hold can upright 10-16” from surface and spray in a steady back-and-forth motion, slightly overlapping each stroke. The Stone finish will vary depending on how far away you spray. Keep the can in motion while spraying. Do not try to achieve total coverage in one coat. Apply one light coat first. Wait 15
minutes until paint starts to set, then apply a second coat. If additional coats are needed, wait 15 minutes between coats. Do not use near open flame.  

Dry & Recoat 

Dry and recoat times are based on 70 °F (21 °C) and 50% relative humidity. Allow more time at cooler temperatures. Dries to the touch in 3-4 hours and to handle in 5-6 hours. For objects exposed to moisture, apply Rust-Oleum Matte Clear top coat for optimal durability. Allow the final coat to dry for 4 hours before applying a clear top coat.

Clean-Up

When finished spraying, clear spray valve by turning can upside down and pushing spray button for 5 seconds. Clean up wet paint with xylol or mineral spirits. Throw away empty can in trash pickup. Do not burn or place in home trash compactor.

Clogging 

If the valve clogs, twist and pull off the spray tip and rinse in a solvent such as mineral spirits. Do not insert any object into the can's valve opening.
