Questions & Answers

Is this an epoxy coating?

Answer This Question

Happy to clear things up, Vince. Rust-Oleum Home Floor Coating is a 2-step system with a base and top coat, these 2 steps are 2 different 1-part coatings, these are not mixed together like an epoxy. -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14

    It I want to apply two coats of The floor coating (before the topcoat). How long should I wait between each floor Coating?

    Answer This Question

    Happy to help, Hope! After applying Rust-Oleum Home Floor Coating Step 1 Base Coat, allow 6 hours before applying a second base coat. Let the second coat dry for 6 hours, then apply the Step 2 Top Coat. If a second topcoat is desired, apply it after 2 hours, but within 24 hours for proper adhesion. — Rust-Oleum Product Support 15

      I painted my kitchen floor using the 2 step process. I now want to repaint (there are some chips). Do I just sand it to get the topcoat off and then apply the paint and topcoat?

      Answer This Question

      We can help with this, Hope! We recommend sanding the current finish and ensuring that it is completely clean and dry before reapplying the base coat and then the topcoat after the recommended amount of time. — Rust-Oleum Product Support 15

          Can I put a top coat of lacquer over this paint on my floor?

          Answer This Question

          Floor paint is designed to be anti slip, placing lacquer will make it extremely slippery.

          Beverly, we are happy to clear things up! Rust-Oleum Home Floor Coating is a 2-part system requiring Step 1 followed by Step 2. The Step 2 is Rust-Oleum Home Floor Topcoat. After 6 hours of applying the base coat, the topcoat will need to be applied. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Rust-Oleum-Home-1-qt-Semi-Gloss-Clear-Interior-Floor-Topcoat-358870/312680447 - Rust-Oleum Product Support 10

            Happy to clear things up, Julie. Each kit of Rust-Oleum Home Floor Coating covers 75-100 square feet. More porous surfaces will negatively impact the coverage rate. -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14

              Can this be used on shower wall tile?
              ByMay 20, 2026
              1 Answer | 
              Answer This Question

              Happy to clear things up. While Rust-Oleum Home Floor Coating can be applied to tile surfaces, it cannont be used in a shower. The exposure to high amounts of moisture and humidity will cause the coating to bubble and peel. The only product we recommend for shower tiles is Rust-Oleum Specialty Tub & Tile. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Rust-Oleum-Specialty-1-Quart-Gloss-White-Tub-and-Tile-Refinishing-Kit-for-Ceramic-and-Porcelain-Surfaces-384165/321743947 -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14

                Answer This Question

                Great question, Tony. While Rust-Oleum Home Floor Coating Step 1 Base Coat can be applied without additional tint, it is a tint base that can be tinted to various colors. This should be tinted in stores and the paint desk of your local Home Depot will be happy to assist you further! -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14

                  I love this product, the application was easy and the instructions were easy to understand. I wish the 2 steps were available in larger sizes. I attached 2 phots a before and after . I think it looks great. I will definitely purchase again.

                  Worked well if your trying to avoid a tiling project and want to change the tile color. Creates a durable surface.

                  Great Adhesion
                  This went down very nicely over stripped slate tile. Lighter color over darker color, plan on 2 coats. However, I found that the coverage was better than advertised (2 coats on 600 sq ft used 1.25 gal) Pictures are Coastal Fog on the tile and Aged Gray on the grout lines.

                    This product is outstanding. I was skeptical about buying it , but I really needed to change the bathroom floor. It came out great. Easy to apply and no odor after use. hopefully it last for several years.

                    Awesome product! I went ahead and did the white (no tinting) so it actually needed four coats of the base before all shadows were gone because I was covering a dark brown laminate floor. It was worth every minute I spent doing it though as it came out GORGEOUS in the end. I finished with a coat of the matte finish and I couldn't be more pleased and proud :) I definitely recommend these products just take your time and follow instructions!

                    I actually did white base coat first. Because the laminate I was covering was a very ugly dark brown, it took four coats of white to finally get rid of any shadows. I expected it would likely take three but it needed just one more and I made sure it was okay to go ahead with the fourth. I then put on the finish coat (in matte) and it was so easy! It is a much more "watery" consistency from the thick base coat so you really don't need much on your roller. The only thing I would recommend doing differently would be to use a high quality roller that WON'T SHED! I was constantly having to have to pick out tiny hairs that I surmised could only be coming out of the roller cover. I guess somehow because of the consistency of the top coat, it pulled these fuzzies to the surface?? Anyway, I highly recommend these products as the finished job it gorgeous! I will report back in a few months to let the community know how it is holding up.

                    Great DYI product. I have missmatched and some broken ceramic, I was quoted $ 4,000 remove and install new ceramic because the current ceramic tile color wasnt avaliable anymore. I ended expending just $350 replaced the broken tiles and painted the whole area. It look great.
