Product Information

Our favourite thing about this paint is the low content of volatile organic compounds. The product is safe to use in enclosed and poorly ventilated spaces and it cleans easily from brushes and rollers. Traditional colours include white and blue. White is a beautiful choice in both urban and rural environments; it has a unique elegance and pairs with all other colours. Blue is ideal to use in a coastal area, inspiring freshness. Consistency may or may not be satisfactory, depending on what you’re painting. High viscosity paint is great to work with on wrought iron or small surfaces because it doesn’t drip. Full hardness is achieved in one week, and it’s recommended to handle painted items with care during this time. Results might not be satisfactory if the product is applied in damp conditions or temperatures below 10°C.

Outdoor metal objects and surfaces, including galvanised doors and aluminium railing and sides, have to be protected against rust and elements with a suitable outdoor metal paint. An array of latex and oil-based paints are suitable for the purpose, but oil-based products generally perform better against adverse weather and elements.Thinner paints can be applied with a roller on solid surfaces like garage doors or gutters. On wrought or cast iron, the best results are achieved with a paintbrush or sprayer. The only downside of this method is waste. A sprayer takes up a lot of paint, so make sure to account for this when choosing the quantity. Apart from this, the process is straightforward. Fill the reservoir with paint, put on protective equipment and spray paint the objects from 10-15cm of distance.

Yes. All paints are washable, but the difference is to what degree you can clean a finish before it becomes noticeable. As a general rule satin paint is durable and perfectly able to cope with being wiped down regularly. Use a mixture of warm water and a kitchen sponge to get rid of most marks. Satin paint is a versatile paint, but it is the finish rather than the type of paint that determines where you shouldn’t use a satin paint. For reasons of hygiene and safety, personal grooming products, cosmetics or items of intimate clothing cannot be returned. Aesthetically, walls are often painted with a matt finish and woodwork with a satin or gloss to create a contrast that looks good. Is satin paint washable? Apply painter’s tape to areas not to be painted and lay a drop cloth under the object to avoid staining the pavement.Stylish and equally classy is copper. Enhancing a luxurious yard or a romantic English garden, this hue mixes well with evergreen vegetation, looking at its best on wrought or cast iron and galvanised steel. Green is another popular choice. Blending perfectly in any outdoor setting, this colour is ideal for all structures and accessories, from fencing to furniture. It also pairs well with neutral tones like sand or beige; light cream is another natural shade to consider if you like classic elegance.

Preparing the surface is key to achieving satisfactory results. For a good paint grip, the surface has to be cleaned and degreased. Remove all stains, old flaking paint, grease, oil, and rust from the surface. This is important even when the product claims to do the job when painted onto rust.If the product is compatible with a sprayer system, the best way to paint outdoor metal is with a sprayer. This power tool minimises work and will deliver a smooth and even result.

Some outdoor metal paints already contain a primer and undercoat in their formulation, but it’s easy to prolong their lifespan with a good pre-paint treatment. Hammerite’s brilliant gloss finish is smooth to touch and elegant to the eye; the product comes in 12 traditional and contemporary shades – all easy to match with the overall style of your space. Its subtle sheen helps hide imperfections while at the same time providing a durable coating that is easy to wipe clean. This makes it a good choice for high traffic areas such asliving rooms, hallways, and bedrooms, plus its resistance to moisture makes it a good option for kitchen and bathrooms. One of the downsides of satin paint is that it has a higher sheen than matt, which means it will show imperfections. So if you have a surface that hasn't been well prepped or you have walls that need a lot of prep you are better off using a matt paint.Providing years of protection, Rust-Oleum Gloss covers up to 9m²/litre depending on application method and rate, and porosity of the surface.
