Rust-Oleum® Stops Rust®, Clean Metal Primer, White

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:Mix thoroughly to ensure any settled pigment is re-dispersed. Thin material only if necessary with mineral spirits. For brush or roller application, thin no more than 5%. Do not thin with gasoline, lacquer thinner, turpentine, etc. Apply with a good quality brush, nap roller, or conventional spray gun. A second coat is not recommended.
Recoat: Dry and recoat times are based on 70°F and 50% relative humidity. Allow more time at cooler temperatures. Dries to touch in 2-4 hours, to handle in 5-9 hours, and is fully dry in 24 hours. Allow paint to dry 24 hours before heating. May recoat after 24 hours as needed. When using the subject surface for the first time, open windows and provide ventilation as the new paint finish may emit smoke. Heat curing is required for temperature use over 500ºF. To improve performance and durability, heat cure at 450ºF for one hour.
Clean-Up: Clean brush, roller, and other tools with mineral spirits. Dispose of soiled rags properly.
