Product Information

Full details

This guide is for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners needing a quick, durable paint solution for small projects.

A potential caveat is its limited coverage area, making it unsuitable for large-scale jobs. Rustins Quick Dry Small Job Paint offers a tough, decorative coating designed for swift application and excellent adhesion when used over appropriate primers or existing finishes.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not drying within the expected time.

Ensure the paint is applied in a thin coat and that the ambient temperature and humidity are suitable for drying. Avoid applying too thickly or in cold, damp conditions.

Poor adhesion or peeling.

The surface may not have been properly prepared. Ensure it was clean, dry, and that an appropriate primer was used on bare surfaces or existing paint was lightly abraded.

Brush marks are visible.

Apply paint in thin, even coats using a good quality brush. Avoid over-brushing. For a smoother finish, consider a light sanding between coats once dry, followed by wiping away dust.

Uneven color or coverage.

Ensure the paint was thoroughly stirred before application. Apply a second thin coat if necessary, ensuring even application across the surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Surface Preparation: Ensure surfaces to be painted are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and flaking paint. For bare wood or metal, apply one coat of Rustins Quick Drying Primer Undercoat or an appropriate metal primer. If painting over existing gloss paint, a light sanding may be required.

Application: Stir the paint thoroughly before use. Apply using a good quality brush. Two thin coats are generally recommended for best results. Allow approximately 30 minutes for the paint to become touch dry. Ensure adequate ventilation during application and drying.

Compatibility: This paint is designed for application on wood and metal. It is intended to be used over Rustins Quick Drying Primer Undercoat or existing paints and varnishes that are in good condition.

Care: Clean brushes and equipment immediately after use with water. For the painted surface, clean with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. The finish is resistant to oil and water once fully cured.
