Can I lightly spray metallic aged rust over oil rubbed bronze? Oil rubbed bronze appears too dark, almost black.

Answer This Question

Absolutely, Dot. Just follow the recoat timing on the label of Rust-Oleum Universal Aged Metallic Paint and Primer in One. Recoat within 1 hour or after 24 hours of applying the first coat. That 24 hours is based on 70° F and 50% humidity. If it's cooler or more humid, wait longer than 24 hours. https://images.thdstatic.com/catalog/pdfImages/2d/2d85048b-94d4-41f2-b9ad-cdcfd48f2bb3.pdf — Rust-Oleum Product Support 15

      Can this paint be used to paint black tapcon screws to match a corten steel panel?
      ByNov 29, 2025
      1 Answer | 
      Answer This Question

      Great question, David! Yes, Rust-Oleum Universal Advanced Formula Metallic Spray Paint can be used to paint black Tapcon screws. It is recommended to paint the screws after they are installed as the act of driving the screw can easily chip or scratch any pre-applied paint. — Rust-Oleum Product Support 15

          Can it be applied to a plastic or how should it be prepared
          ByJun 1, 2025
          1 Answer | 
          Answer This Question

          Happy to help, John! Yes, Rust-Oleum Universal Pearl Metallic Spray Paint can be applied to plastic. Sand the surface with 220-grit sandpaper and make sure that it's clean and dry before spraying 2-3 light coats of the paint. Please note that full durability and adhesion to some plastics can take up to 7 days, so we don't recommend testing for adhesion before then. — Rust-Oleum Product Support 15

            I use the oil-rubbed bronze on my outdoor patio furniture and love it. Can I use it on my metal fire table also? Would I need to measure the temperature of the metal? It has a metal rim next to the fire that wouldn’t need painting. Thx.

            Answer This Question

            Happy to help! Rust-Oleum Universal Metallic Spray can resist temperatures up to 200°F and can be applied to surfaces that aren't exposed to direct heat or flames. Otherwise, the paint will blister and peel off. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 10

              is this paint waterproof
              ByJan 6, 2025

              Answer This Question

              Thank you for reaching out, Fred. While Rust-Oleum Universal Metallic Spray Paint provides a durable finish, it is not considered to be a waterproof paint. Any full water immersion will cause the paint to blister and peel. -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14

                4 out of the 6 cans leaked from under the cap all over my hand. Dripped on a fender that had to be stripped and re-sprayed. The product looks great. The delivery system is trash.

                This is our favorite color. It is deep and rich, and it makes everything look fabulous. I like the fact that it has a trigger and not a push button. It is so much easier to use.

                Defective trigger/cans
                Thought I was alone with my issues with the can and spray function but apparently not. Of the dozen cans I purchased half of them leaked causing drips on my work surface. I ended up having to strip the entire work piece and having to re-apply the paint. I generally like Rust-O-Leum paint but will avoid this product in the future due to the can and trigger mechanism. Perhaps they should switch the can to the adjustable nozzle they offer in other paints..

                  can leaks!
                  I thought maybe I got a defective can because the can leaked terribly while I was spraying. It made a horrible mess all over. The 2nd can did exactly the same thing, so it must be a design problem. Most of the paint dripped out of the nozzle down the side of the can while I was spraying. I was able to get my project done, but I won't buy this paint again.

                    Can leaks a ton from the nozzel
                    Shake the can up like you’re supposed to and do even, level strokes across the material and when you finish a sweep or two, the paint is literally dripping down your spray fingers and the can. This isn’t from having my finger in the way. I have tried to get it as low as humanly possible on the trigger and it drips every time. If you have to use this because it’s the color you need and no one else sells it, than just be prepared to drop cloth the material and under your hand wherever it will be.

                      Great paint, great coverage, paint+primer
                      I love this paint. This is my second purchase but in a different color. This project is painting the front door hardware including the door knocker and door handle and latch. I am asked off the area and sprayed my first coat. I waited 30 minutes to spray the second coat. After one hour I then took off all of the masking materials. It made my very old door hardware look brand new again.

                        Terrible spray nozzle
                        Rust oleum paint has always been great quality but this spray nozzle is terrible. Spits spots of paint that you can help by wiping the nozzle regularly with a rag. Spray is inconsistent from can to can. Painted large gates and had to use 9 cans to get a semi good finish. Spray comes out with irregular volume causing stripes. Will never use this product again.

                        We appreciate your reaching out and sharing your experinece, Jay! To ensure the most even spray, it is essential that Rust-Oleum Universal Metallic Spray Paint and Primer is thoroughly shaken before each use and often during application. The trigger also needs to be fully depressed when spraying.

                          Nozzles are defective
                          I purchased the Titanium Silver on Sunday. I attempted to spray paint some metal pieces. The can began to leak paint at the black trigger each time it was squeezed. The paint would get all over the hand and drip down the can. I returned the spray can the next day and bought two more cans so I could finish my project. I get home and attempt to paint again. The same problem happened again. Avsolute junk.

                            Leaks from the trigger BAD.
                            The copper-rose color is beautiful but the can leaked horribly. I’ve never seen anything like it. Ended up getting paint drips all over our project because the trigger was leaking so bad.
