. PRODUCT APPLICATION .
SURFACE PREPARATION
ALL SURFACES: Remove all dirt, grease, oil, salt and
chemical contaminants by washing the surface with a
commercial detergent, or other suitable cleaning method.
Mold and mildew must be cleaned with a chlorinated
cleaner or bleach solution. Rinse with fresh water and
allow to thoroughly dry.
STEEL: Scrape and wire brush or power tool clean to
remove loose rust, scale and deteriorated coatings. Use
7769 Rusty Metal Primer for sound rusted or clean metal
before application of a finish coat. 7780 Clean Metal
Primer is best for clean metal but may be used on sound
rusted metal as well.
PREVIOUSLY COATED: 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.

SURFACE PREPARATION (cont.)
WARNING! If you scrape, sand or remove old paint from
any surface, you may release lead paint dust. LEAD IS
TOXIC. EXPOSURE TO LEAD DUST CAN CAUSE
SERIOUS ILLNESS, SUCH AS BRAIN DAMAGE;
ESPECIALLY IN CHILDREN. PREGNANT WOMEN
SHOULD ALSO AVOID EXPOSURE. Wear a NIOSH
approved respirator to control lead exposure. Clean up
carefully with a HEPA vacuum and a wet mop. Before you
start, find out how to protect yourself and your family by
contacting the National Lead Information Hotline at 1-800-
424-LEAD or log on to www.epa.gov/lead.
APPLICATION
Apply only when air and surface temperatures are
between 50-90°F (10-32°C) and the relative humidity is
below 85% to ensure proper drying. Protect the
surrounding area from overspray. Overspray can carry a
significant distance. 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. Hold
can upright 10-16" 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 two or more light
coats a few minutes apart to avoid drips and runs. Do not
use near open flame.
DRY & RECOAT
Dry and recoat times are based on 70ºF (21°C) and 50%
relative humidity. Dries to the touch in 2-4 hours and can
be handled in 5-9 hours. Recoat within 1 hour or after 24
hours.
CLEAN-UP
Clean valve immediately after use by turning can upside
down and depressing spray button for 3-5 seconds (some
paint will be sprayed out, so be careful to not inadvertently
spray yourself or other objects). Clean up wet paint with
xylene or mineral spirits. Throw away empty can in trash
pick-up. Do not burn or place in home trash compactor.
CLOGGING
If the valve clogs, twist and pull off spray tip and rinse in a
solvent such as mineral spirits. Do not insert any object
into can valve opening.
