Hammerite High Gloss metal paint

A high-gloss, rust-inhibiting, solvent-based metal paint. It can be applied directly over rust and sound paint layers on iron and steel, without a separate primer, and according to Hammerite protects against rust for up to 8 years.

What you use it for

On ferrous metals, new or rusty, and on sound paint layers, interior and exterior: fencing, stairs, garage doors and garden furniture made of steel or cast iron. On non-ferrous metals such as aluminium and zinc, first apply a coat of Hammerite Adhesion Primer.

Application

Clean and degrease with Hammerite Metal Degreaser, remove loose rust and poorly adhering paint and sand the metal with P60 to P80 (sound paint layers with P220 to P280). Remove dust and degrease again. Stir thoroughly for at least 2 minutes before use. Apply with an alkyd brush or short-pile roller in 2 to 3 full coats. Ready to use; if necessary thin by no more than 3% with Hammerite Brush Cleaner & Thinner. Dust-dry after 2 hours, recoatable after 4 hours, fully hardened after 48 hours. Coverage about 10 m² per litre per coat. Apply between 5 and 30 °C.

Please note

When used indoors, light colours may yellow and darken. Never pour paint down the sink and do not rinse tools under the tap; paint residues go to chemical waste.
