Wrinkles
If the first coat isn't completely dry (48 hours?) the second coat will wrinkle. Such a bad product.

Response from Rust-OleumSupportMay 25, 2022
Thank you for reaching out, Bob. Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Protective Enamel Spray Paint needs to be recoated within 1 hour of the previous coat or after 48 hours has passed. If you recoat before the first application of paint has skinned over and begun to dry to the touch, the two coats will dry correctly. However, if recoated at the wrong time, it may wrinkle blister or crack, which sounds like what you are experiencing. Simply put, to apply a second coat, the first coat must be very dry or very wet - never in between. To fix this, try sanding the surface, wait 48 hours and apply again.

    Looks new again
    Our patio table and end tables that set outside year round began to rust considerably. The rust was removed with an angle grinder and wire brush attached then sanded and primer applied. The paint covered very well and was smooth. One coat did the job and the color was pretty close to the original. The end tables were masked off and and primed and painted the same way. The paint dried quickly but to make sure we let the table set under our carport and dry for a couple of days which wasn't necessary but had other projects going before we could put the tables back on the deck anyway. The tables look as good as they did when they were new and very pleased with the outcome.

    The "BEST"
    I prefer to use Rust-Olem on all my metal projects. It gives them the extra protection against rust as well as an exceptional looking finish. Especially with the "Crystal Clear" item. I build custom pipe lamps with built-in phone chargers for people and believe in using the best products that I can for my customers.

    Spray paint has really come a long way in quality and ease of use. I painted an arcade made of MDF and this paint worked flawlessly. Dries fast and layers well.

      I used it to overcoat a yellow enamel paint job with a glitter coat overlay. Nice coverage with a fairly heavy 3 costs. Easy to apply with no sags or runs. Dried nicely with a good shine and no obvious tint or yellowing in the clear coat. Nice product and I will be using it again.

      Let's see what we can figure out Taylor. Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Protective Enamel Spray Paint is an oil based ultra durable, corrosion-resistant spray paint. It dries to the touch in 2-4 hours and can be handled in 5-9 hours.

      Ruined my project and added hours to finish it!
      I used Rustoleum products countless times in the past and I don’t know what happened here but this product absolutely ruined an otherwise beautiful project! Followed instructions and have done this before, very unhappy customer!

        The best exterior spray paint.
        I used this on my my rusty metal window well and it looks awesome. Hopefully it will last and stops rust as advertised.

          Nice Leather Brown
          My wife loves these paints for her craft projects. This leather brown really does look like an authentic leather color, but it is not the brown of say tree bark. It gives a nice gloss finish.

          I purchase two spray cans and the last one got very cogged that the paint blew up on me. This brand is false on 1 year warranty. If I don't get a refund I will make a bbb complaint.

            Excellent coverage, great appearance
            Six cans of Maui Blue Gloss spray paint, costing a little over $25 in all, were enough to completely cover an old steel mesh patio set (a large round table, four chairs, two rocking chairs, and a small side table) in two coats. Highly recommend!

              Nice coverage without the need of primer
              I like the way the product delivers the paint based on how do you spray without a problem. As long you’re doing light coats the stuff really delivers to show excellence at the end of the job. It’s is made in USA and it’s priced just right. You can’t miss on this one!

              GS500E Motorcycle Highlight Parts
              I've also attached my attempt with the Rustoleum Regal Red Enamel Gloss Protective, the color was horrible compared to the Dupli-color. The finish is much more professional with the Dupli-color. I used to airbrush a lot more than now, and this is a comparable experience. I no longer have an exhaust and hood due to COVID-19, so, this is the next best option for DIY. Instead of the Rustoleum Regal Red Enamel, I would suggest using the Dupli-color Cardinal Red BFM0306 for highlighting spare parts on my GS500E motorcycle. It was impossible to find the same red, and Colorrite costs over 16.95 for their aerosol, plus their clear coats which requires over $60 to purchase. So, this saved me. I'm currently working on the chain guard, engine guards, and will start working on the battery cover soon. This is the exact, if not close, Candy Anteres Red for Suzuki GS500E 1992 to 2009 bikes. I'm very happy. Bought the Perfect Match High Gloss Clear Coat BCL0125. Haven't done the top coat yet. But looking forward to it. Many reviews mentioned that the spray nozzle had issues. I did not have the same experience. I also used a spray grip, this helped to spray more evenly. I've used other Rustoleum products before, and am using the Rustoleum Black Sandable Primer before doing any of these coats. That is doing great. The other product that I also suggest is the rust prevention Rustoleum primer (comes in Bronze/Cooper color). Hope this helps.

                We had some decorative pumpkins made from welded horseshoes. We painted them with this orange. One can was enough to paint all three pumpkins although there are a couple of spots that could use a little more paint. It will work well enough to have the pumpkins out for the fall and keep them protected while making them look good.

                Perfect for Rattan
                This info has helped me so much: this color is perfect to cover painted wicker to make it look natural again!! I always thought wicker was ruined once painted white or black, but nope! This is something any Boho decor lover should have on hand!

                  I have used rust-oleum on several different projects and I’m always happy with the way it turns out. This is the first time I’ve used the product on patio furniture. We used a wire brush first. It has a nice smooth finish and I’m looking forward to seeing how long it lasts.
