was told by rustoleum this is an enamel product, but description calls it an acrylic lacquer
Very confusing when deciding on a clear gloss topcoat to go over this product. Had bought a rustoleum custom premium lacquer gloss clear paint, but was later told by rustoleum not to use it, and instead use a enamel clear coat. Product description calls it an acrylic lacquer, but rustoleum says its an enamel which isn't even mentioned on the can.

    I bought this particular Rust-oleum brand Textured Metallic Galaxy paint to bring back to life landscape lights that had been given to me to use. They were peeling silver colored and figured this paint would help. Well.. this paint did an amazing job rehabbing the old lights. A little scraping with a wire brush, wash, and a couple of coats and the pieces look brand new. The paint gives the surface a rough and sparkle look which is perfect to hide any imperfections. I did have one can out of 6 that stopped spraying but i switched out the tips from another can and shot right out. You should continue to shake the can during use for best results.

    Used this to refinish an 80's gold light fixture and looks great now. Paint goes on easy and as long as you make sure to use a light touch, you should be able to avoid any runs (multiple coats is better than thicker coats). Perhaps a little pricey, but I like the look.

    Few problems with 2 out of 6 cans. Got clogged and couldn't use they were almost full. No problems like that before

    Paint is pretty but very thin requiring three times the usual amount needed.

    We're here to help, Kay! To get the textured look from Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Textured Metallic, we recommend applying 2 or more light layers a couple of minutes apart, holding the can 18-24" from the surface. Doing so will ensure for a coverage of 4-8 square feet per can.

    Oh, no! It sounds like the nozzle may have been clogged in the Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Textured Metallic Spray Paint. You may want to try to soak the nozzle in a little bit of acetone, to see if that will help with the issue. If it doesn't, we want to try to help. Consider calling us at (800) 481-4785 - Rust-Oleum Product Support 1 Rustoleum

    This paint is trash
    Waste of money. The paint comes out very uneven, then clogs completely. At that point all the pressure leaks out leaving you with over half a can of paint stuck in the can. This happened on two cans in a row. It ruined my project on top of wasting over $20 on paint.

    We don't like to hear that! Certainly, it is important to thoroughly shake Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Textured Metallic Spray Paint prior to use, and occasionally during use as well. The can should be shaken for no less than one minute after the mixing ball in the can begins to rattle. You also want to ensure that you are shaking the can often during your application. This ensures that the product is mixed well, and prevents larger particles from being sprayed through the nozzle.
    You also want to make sure the finger that presses down on the nozzle stays clean and free of any paint. It is important to have your index finger centered on the nozzle itself. If your finger is too forward, it can cause some blocking of the spray mist as it comes out of the can, which can cause sputtering or larger drops to be sprayed on the surface.

    Oh no, this is not what we like to hear! Rust-Oleum Stops Rust MultiColor Textured Spray Paint contains a lot of textured pigment, for that reason is it important to shake the can vigorously for at least one minute once the mixing ball begins to rattle. During the painting process is it just as important to shake vigorously to ensure the textured pigment remains blended in the can, this allows for proper spray. Give us a call at 800-481-4785, so we can hear more about your product and try to make things right.

    Pretty but disappointing
    Pretty but doesnt spray consistently. Then when i went to take the top off, the spray nozzle broke. Not came off, but broke. More than half a can left. Disappointing.

    Thank you for sharing your experience, Angel. When removing the lid from Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Textured Metallic Spray Paint, you want to ensure that you are pulling it straight up and not to the side. It is also essential that the can is shaken for a full minute before each use and shaken often during application to prevent settling in the can.

    That's not what we expect to hear! For the best results, we do recommend applying two or more light coats of Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Textured Metallic Spray Paint a few minutes apart. If applying over bare wood or metal, a primer should be used to help with coverage as well.

    The sprayer (unlike Behr spray paint) is uncontrolably fast and large volume and then gets clogged/stops spraying. It should spray at a lower rate and/or controlable so as not to waste paint
