When using Ronseal’s Direct to Metal Paint choose a dry day, above 10°C, when it’s not likely to rain. Make sure the metal is clean, dry and free from dirt, dust and grease and give the paint a really good stir for 2-3 minutes. Use a roller or brush to apply it, alternatively if you would prefer to spray this product, make sure you dilute the paint with about 10% water or to the spray specifications. 2 coats will provide sufficient coverage, but 3 coats are recommended for rusty surfaces and ultimate durability. Leave it to dry for 2-4 hours between each coat and after your last coat, it’ll be touch dry in 30 minutes.

To keep your metal looking its best, check for any imperfections every year. If you notice any cracks, blisters or scratches, sand off any loose bits and touch up the area with 2 coats of our Direct to Metal Paint.
