## Description

Painting your car can be a long and laborious task at the best of times. Primer, undercoats and topcoats are needed and therefore you will have to purchase three different tins of paint to get the job done, until now.Hammerite Metal Paint can be applied directly onto rusty metal thanks to a formula that has been developed to be a primer, undercoat and topcoat in one. It gives a brilliant gloss finish that is smooth to touch whilst forming a barrier that not only seals out moisture and gives long lasting protection, both inside and out. Easy to use, apply it on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Comes in smooth black in a 250ml tin.The Hammerite range is designed to protect metalwork from humidity, rain and rust.

Review: Size of can is deceptively small, but results are fantastic - For the price, you think you're getting a quart... nope, it's 8 ounces, going to need 5 or 6 cans to get our wrought iron fence done... BUT, it's so easy to apply (it is very thick), and the results are fantastic. Our old fence got a major face-lift. The other alternatives for repair would have been more time consuming and more expensive, so this was a great solution. Hoping it really holds up 8 years as promised
Review: Check color when received. - This is a good brand but I got red instead of the dark green I ordered so be sure to check your order. desertcart solved the issue promptly and I am 100% satisfied.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used on metal baseboard heat covers?**
A: I am certain the temperature of baseboard covers do not get hot enough to damage the paint. I painted my outdoor handrails with the paint and it gets to be 100+ degrees in the summer. Hope this helped.

**Q: Can this product be used to paint the inside of a rusted medicine cabinet?**
A: Yes, but I would use a Hammerite primer first then the Hammerite paint in the blue can!

**Q: Is this a gloss dark green?**
A: It definitely is a hard gloss finish and yes dark green.

**Q: Can I able to spray this product on with a paint spray rig. If so, do you recommend a certain tip size?**
A: I wouldn't think so because it's very thick and it has, I think, fiberglass fibers in it. I'd worry it would clog your equipment. I have bought it in the past in a can, but haven't found it since. It's pricey, but great stuff.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great stuff
*by B***D on June 3, 2021*

Great product. Very durable, easy to apply. So how I use it (on rusty car parts): Use a wire wheel and remove the rust corrosion Paint etc Spray it off with water Brake cleaner Apply with a paintbrush Dry Second coat All good! Unfortunately it seems I can’t get the bigger cans here on the USA so I have to Order the 250ml cans.
