DESCRIPTION AND USES
Universal Premium Aged Metallic Sprays are versatile all-surface paint that provides a durable protective coating with excellent resistance to rust, and excellent resistance to abrasion, fading, chipping, and dulling. Universal Aged Metallic Spray is suitable for use on metal, wood, plastic, wicker and aluminum. This spray applies easily, provides excellent coverage and dries fast to a tough attractive finish. Universal features a comfort grip trigger that reduces fatigue caused by continuous spraying and an any-angle tip which allows you to spray at any angle.
TIP: Some plastics made of polyethylene such as plastic storage containers are manufactured in a way that may hinder maximum paint adhesion. Test paint in a hidden area first.
PRODUCT APPLICATION
Use outdoors or in a well ventilated area such as an open garage. Use when temperature is between 50-90ºF (10- 32ºC) and humidity is below 65% to ensure proper drying. Do not use on objects that may exceed 200ºF (93ºC) surface temperature.
Do not apply to galvanized steel. 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. Previously coated surfaces must be sound and in good condition. Smooth, hard, or glossy finishes should be scarified by sanding to create a surface profile.
APPLICATION
Shake can vigorously for one minute after the mixing ball begins to rattle. If mixing ball fails to rattle DO NOT STRIKE CAN. Contact Rust-Oleum. Shake often during use. Prior to use, slide off the red safety clip from the trigger. Test paint in an inconspicuous area first to ensure desired results.
For best results, lay object horizontally on a flat surface. Hold can upright 12-24” from surface and spray in a steady back-and-forth motion, slightly overlapping each stroke. Keep the can the same distance from the surface. Keep the can in motion while spraying. Apply one light coat, allow to dry for 3-5 minutes, and follow with one heavier coat at moderate speed, spraying continuously over the object. If needed, recoat after 3-5 minutes. Do not use near open flame.
DRY & RECOAT
Dry and recoat times are based on 70ºF and 50% relative humidity. Allow more time at cooler temperatures. Dries to touch in 1 hour, to handle in 2-3 hours, and is fully dry in 4872 hours. Apply additional coats at any time, but for best results wait 5 minutes between coats.
CLEAN-UP
When finished spraying, wipe off tip before storing. Clean up wet paint with xylene or mineral spirits. Properly discard empty container. Do not burn or place in home trash compactor.
