Questions & Answers
After spraying black satin protective enamel, when can Matt clear enamel be sprayed on?
Great question, Baker. Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Protective Enamel Spray Paint can be top coated with any sheen of Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Protective Enamel Clear Spray either within 1 hour or after 48 hours. -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14
can you use the spray enamel on card stock that u want to glue to a can outdoors
Thank you for reaching out, Kathie. While Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Protective Enamel Clear Spray provides a durable finish for outdoor surfaces, it is not recommended to be used as an adhesive or top coat for card stock. The clear will not properly adhere and peel over time. -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14
Hi, can this be used to clear coat over stinseled address numbers on a concrete curb ?
Happy to help, John! Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Protective Clear Enamel Spray can be used as a clear coat over stenciled address numbers on a concrete curb. Be sure to allow the lettering paint to fully dry before applying the clear coat, and apply several light coats rather than one heavy coat for the best appearance and durability. Keep in mind that concrete is a more porous surface; actual coverage may be lower than expected. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 16
Can this be sprayed on poster paper to protect a cut out staked into the grass for Halloween?
Thanks for your interest! Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Crystal Clear Enamel can be applied to poster paper, but we recommend testing it on a small, inconspicuous area first. Because paper is very porous, heavy coats may cause wrinkling, curling, or discoloration. Applying several light coats a few minutes apart is the best way to minimize these effects. — Rust-Oleum Product Support 15
Can I spray this on a latex mask on a Halloween animatronic being put outside?
Alix, we appreciate your interest! Due to the material of the mask, Rust-Oleum Painter's Touch Ultra Cover 2X Clear Spray will not properly adhere or dry due to the flexible rubber surface. Currently we do not offer a clear coat that we can recommend for your project needs. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 10
I have patio chairs that are power coated steel with an aluminum panel and HDPE foot rail covers over powder coated steel. Is the a primer suitable for the aluminum panel and HDPE plastic before I top coat with rust protection spray paint? Thank you
Happy to help! While Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Protective Enamel Spray Paint provides a durable finish for metal surfaces, it will not properly adhere to plastic surfaces. Instead, we recommend priming the surface using Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Universal Bonding Primer before top coating. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Rust-Oleum-Stops-Rust-12-oz-Universal-Bonding-Primer-Spray-6-Pack-285011/205926957 -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14
Would this work for headlight restoration top coat
We appreciate your interest, Jeff. Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Protective Enamel Clear Spray is suitable for use on metal, wood, and fiberglass surfaces. This product will not properly adhere to glass or plastic surfaces. At this time, we do not recommend any of our clear sprays for use on headlights, since the plastics commonly used with this surface type hinders paint adhesion. — Rust-Oleum Product Support 15
I would like to put a coating on a ( drum) brake BACKING PLATE, the circular stamped metal plate which serves as the point of attachment for the brake shoes, and the springs holding everything in place. I need abrasion resistance.
Thank you for your question, Greg. Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Crystal Clear Enamel can help protect metal from corrosion, but it is not designed to withstand the abrasion that occurs on drum brake backing plates where brake shoes and hardware make contact. Those wear points are likely to wear through any coating over time. For this reason, we do not recommend clear coating the contact areas of the backing plate. — Rust-Oleum Product Support 15
